Mo Williams is an unrestricted free agent this summer, and will reportedly only re-sign with the Jazz as a starter, not a backup point guard.
The Jazz just drafted University of Michigan star Trey Burke, and Williams is unwilling to come back if he's second to the rookie.
A 10-year NBA veteran, Williams played just 46 games in the 2012-2013 season, plagued with injuries and averaging 12.9 points and 6.2 assists.
The Jazz were intent on getting a new point guard, dealing their two first-round picks (Nos. 14 and 21) to the Minnesota Timberwolves to get Burke. He averaged 18.6 points and 6.7 rebounds as a sophomore last season, leading Michigan to the NCAA championship game.
