Professional sports signings
- Jazz G/F Ace Bailey switched his representation to Klutch Sports, where he will be represented by Rich Paul. The road to his new representation has been a long one for the 19-year-old.

Bailey is heading into the second year of a four-year, $41M contract. The Jazz hold team options for the 2027-28 and 2028-29 seasons.
