Official waiver in Utah
The Utah Jazz have waived center Ibrahima Diallo effective September 24, leaving him without an NBA team after an official waiver that confirms his exit from the main roster. The move fits Utah's usual sign-and-waive pattern with development profiles before preseason.
The transaction appears in NBA.com oficial and was picked up by RotoWire, which notes Diallo had signed a training camp contract with Utah before the waiver and is now expected to continue in the G League.
Diallo's profile
Diallo, a 7-foot center out of UCF, went undrafted and has built his résumé in the G League with the Westchester Knicks. In the 2025-26 campaign he averaged 4.8 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.0 blocks over 33 games with Westchester, an interior defensive profile suited to affiliate minutes.
RotoWire adds that after leaving the main roster, Diallo is expected to report to affiliate Salt Lake City Stars, while remaining eligible for a future call-up by the Jazz.
What the waiver means
By leaving the Jazz roster, Diallo vacates a preseason spot and becomes a free agent until his next destination is settled. The move does not necessarily end his relationship with Utah, but follows the usual camp-contract path toward the G League.
For the Jazz, the waiver frees a preseason roster spot as the franchise trims its frontcourt before training camp, with Walker Kessler and the two-way core already shaping the main rotation.
Roster context
Diallo's waiver came on September 24, one day after his training camp signing, in the procedural movement window before preseason. Utah has used the same approach with other undrafted players earmarked for the development pipeline this month.
