[RealGM Wiretap]

Carlos Boozer is expected to rejoin the Utah Jazz as a scout, sources told Michael Scotto of HoopsHype.

Boozer played for the team from 2004-2010.

The Jazz have the fifth pick in the upcoming draft.

Scotto adds that while the Jazz could have been aggressive with trades had they landed the top pick, there is uncertainty on what the team will now do with Lauri Markkanen this offseason.

...there is uncertainty on what the team will now do with Lauri Markkanen this offseason.

Well, he's owed an average of $49m per for the next four seasons and he averaged 19/6/1 on 42% shooting last season... I think they'll be hanging onto him until he returns to all-star form.
