The Utah Jazz will not extend a qualifying offer to Micah Potter, making him an unrestricted free agent, League Sources tell The Athletic. A return is still possible, depending on roster moves, according to sources. Potter does have interest on the market

Potter has spent the last two seasons with the Jazz and has spent most of that time playing with the Salt Lake City Stars. For the Stars, Potter has been a good G-League player and has shot the ball well. For the Jazz, in the short time he’s had on the floor, he’s shot the ball well but hasn’t had enough of an impact to gain more minutes.
This is a little bit of a bummer because Potter has been willing to do everything he’s been asked to do. On top of his time with the Stars, he’s also played on multiple summer league teams and has appeared to be a great teammate. Jones mentions that there’s a possibility he could return so we’ll see if that happens, but Potter should garner some interest from another team looking for the shooting and size that Potter brings.
