Gordon Hayward and Derrick Favors were both terrific today at practice. Reminder you can see them Saturday at 4 at the scrimmage
@BenKFAN:
Corbin expects Jeremy Evans to log a lot minutes this year, both as a low post presence and on the perimeter. #Jazz #1320KFAN

Done for the day. Utah football game tonight with the team.
I recommend listening to today's Ip Off. Locke gives a lot of info/highlights/concerns so far in practices:
