Jazz sign first-round picks to rookie-scale contracts

The Jazz have signed first-round picks Cody Williams and Isaiah Collier, according to a team press release.

The 10th pick in last week’s draft, Williams will make $5,469,120 in his first season, assuming the usual 120 percent of the rookie-scale figure given out by most teams to first-rounders. He’s due to make $24,897,090 during his first four years in the NBA.

Collier, the 29th pick, is eligible to receive $2,512,680 in his first year and a total of $12,903,788 through his first four seasons.

Rookie-scale contracts are guaranteed for the first two years, with team options in the third and fourth years.

The 6-foot-8 Williams posted averages of 11.9 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.6 assists in 28.4 minutes per contest as a Colorado freshman. The 6-foot-5 Collier, a 2023-24 Pac-12 All-Freshman team honoree at USC, averaged 16.3 points, 4.3 assists, and 1.5 steals in 27 games.
