Sort of. As a cap-space team, the Jazz get the smaller room mid-level: up to $11.4M for 2029-30 (projected).

Full (non-taxpayer) MLE

$18.4M

Taxpayer MLE

$7.4M

Room MLE

$11.4M

Teams that go under the cap trade the regular mid-level for the room MLE. After spending their cap space, the Jazz can sign one more player for up to $11.4M starting salary on a deal of up to 3 years.

This is a forward look at 2029-30: it counts the contracts, options, and cap holds already on the Jazz books for that season. Signings, trades, and option decisions between now and then will move these numbers.

The rule behind this

The room mid-level exception belongs to teams that went under the cap and used cap space. Once their space is spent, the room MLE lets them sign one more player above the cap, on a smaller and shorter deal than the full mid-level.
