Justin Harmon is off the Utah Jazz roster as of Thursday, September 24, per the team's official roster. The 25-year-old rookie guard had no report on file ahead of the move and no NBA line from last season.

The move

Justin Harmon is off the Utah Jazz roster as of Thursday, September 24, according to the team's official roster. Harmon, a 25-year-old rookie guard, had been on Utah's roster before the change. No report or source had logged the transaction ahead of the roster update; the move was detected directly from the official roster, with no additional transaction detail on file.

The money

Harmon's contract is not on file yet, since public salary data can lag a signing by a day. The Jazz carry $181.9 million in payroll across 15 contracts for 2026-27, above the $165.0 million salary cap but under the $200.4 million luxury tax line. Utah sits below both the $209.0 million first apron and the $221.7 million second apron. Harmon's departure does not change those figures until his own contract status is confirmed.

The fit

Harmon has no NBA line from last season, entering as a rookie guard. Utah's backcourt minutes last season went to Keyonte George (33.1 minutes, 23.6 points), Kennedy Chandler (32.3 minutes, 15.0 points) and Bez Mbeng (32.8 minutes, 8.1 points), with Ace Bailey also logging wing minutes (27.6 minutes, 13.8 points). The Jazz roster now stands at 18 players, 15 on standard deals plus three two-way spots, following Harmon's departure.
