The Raja Bell Escape From Deseret: Jazz and Bell Still Working On A Buyout

Here is your latest update on the Raja Bell contract buyout saga: both the Jazz and Bell are ironing out a deal to get a buyout done, but nothing has been agreed upon yet. It was pretty obvious last year that Raja Bell wanted out of Utah for many reasons, including discontent for coach Corbin, lack of minutes, and a feeling of not being needed due to Hayward and Burks (hence the lack of minutes). One new tidbit of info regarding this story is it has now surfaced that Bell hasn't rejected any buyout offer from the Jazz as was thought a month ago. Either way, the sooner the Jazz can get Raja Bell to go on his merry way out of Utah, the better. There is definitely no need to have Raja Bell hanging around the team like an angry bee.
