Recall that three years ago when Jimmer was drafted, many people expected him to go to the Jazz. I think Utah erred by not take Jimmer then. Hopefully, they will correct that error soon.

In 2014, Jimmer a Free Agent
The Sacramento Kings have reportedly decided not to exercise their option to retain Jimmer for the 2013-14 season. So, beginning summer 2014 Jimmer will be an unrestricted free agent.
Will free agent status be good or bad for Jimmer? Probably good. In three years at Sacramento, under three different coaches, he has been continuously under-utilized. If he lands on the right team, he could have a Jeremy Lin moment - finally getting the playing time he deserves.
It's too soon to say which team will scoop Jimmer up. The Utah Jazz could make a good play for fan turnout by appealing to Jimmer's local fan base.
