Jaxson Hayes Contract & Salary

Jaxson Hayes is on the books for $6,000,000 in 2026–27, the 8th largest cap hit on the Utah Jazz roster and 3.3% of the team's $180.5M payroll.

That ranks 241st among the 444 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 3.6% of the $165.0M salary cap.

The deal has 2 seasons left on it, running through 2027-28, worth $12,000,000 in guaranteed money.

The salary is essentially flat across the deal, holding near $6,000,000 every year rather than escalating.

Not every year is locked in: 2027-28 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.

At 22, he is still inside the cheap early-career window; this deal runs through his age-23 season, before the expensive years start.

He is the 8th highest-paid of the 14 players on the roster, in the middle of the pay structure.

He is one of 14 players on the Utah Jazz's books for 2026–27, whose 2026–27 salaries add up to $180,515,680.

Utah Jazz sit at $180.5M in payroll and are currently classified Over Cap, with +$28.5M of room below the first apron.
