Updated · 2026–27 season

Darryn Peterson is on the books for $13,195,320 in 2026–27, the 4th largest cap hit on the Utah Jazz roster and 7.3% of the team's $180.5M payroll.

That ranks 141st among the 444 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 8.0% of the $165.0M salary cap.

The deal has 4 seasons left on it, running through 2029-30, worth $59,884,320 in guaranteed money.

The money climbs as it goes: $13,195,320 in the first year up to $18,318,360 in the last, a 39% rise across the deal.

Not every year is locked in: 2028-29 team option, 2029-30 team option.

The option year belongs to the team, which makes that season a decision point rather than a commitment: it can be picked up cheaply or declined outright.

He is the 4th highest-paid of the 14 players on the roster, in the middle of the pay structure.
