Jazz to call up Chris Johnson from D League

Good Lord, the Jazz organization has been quite slutty this season.

Just this month:

* waiver Murry
* signed Millsap to 10-day
* signed Williams to 10-day
* signed Millsap to 2nd 10-day
* signed Williams to 2nd 10-day
* signed Millsap to multi-year
* let Williams expire
* signed Johnson to 10-day

C'mon Lindsay, there's still 4 more days in January. Get something done already!
 
Is Andre Dawkins still currently on an NBA roster? I have never seen him but in researching him, he seems like he'd be a good fit imo. Duke kid (Snyder's Coach K ties), shooting 45.9% from three (on 10.4 attempts per game) in d-league with 3.5 assists and 3.4 rebounds per so he can help in multiple ways. 6'8.5" wingspan for a shooting guard. I'm not sure if he's too ball dominant or not but I like what the metrics say.

He's a good shooter, and that's it. Really great kid, but he's mentally soft. I just don't see him making it, but maybe he's improved since college. Was one of Duke's worst defenders (and that's saying something).

Every team should do this for DLeaguers. Salary is only $17K for most fro the entire season. They make almost $30K, I believe, for one 10-day contract. Last twenty days and they have 3 years worth of D-League salary to put in the bank. Something really needs to be done to raise DLeague salaries if the NBA is serious about it becoming a true minor league system. Otherwise the best players who are released in training camp will continue to go to Europe, China, etc. to play.
