While the Jazz are desperate to link up with Conley, it seems as though the feeling isn't mutual. ESPN's Brian Windhorst first reported Conley's reluctance to move to Utah during his podcast and within the last few hours, the New York Times' Marc Stein has confirmed Conley's hesitation to move to the Jazz:

Conley's current unwillingness to join the Jazz puts the organization in a tough spot with just 24 hours remaining to get a deal done, and this trade is likely to go all the way down to the deadline.
