After being cut by Houston, Springer signed a 10-day deal with the Jazz in February and agreed to a two-year contract with the team in March following that initial 10-day audition. However, he was waived by Utah last week before his minimum salary for the 2025/26 season could become partially guaranteed.

Jaden Springer has found a new home one week after being released by the Utah Jazz. The former Celtics guard has signed a contract with the New Orleans Pelicans, the team announced. The terms of the deal were not released, but it’s safe to assume it’s for a league minimum deal heading into training camp this fall.
