Also Elliot Williams, Reggie Williams, Damien Wilkens. Also does anyone know if Bryce Cotton's rights would go the Stampede and has he received any nibbles from NBA teams?
Yes, Philly so strange. They have been waiving their players one by one today. Their latest cuts are Scott Wilbekin and Aldemir (which is kind of surprising). they have one more cut to go.
Well if Jazz liked Elliot Williams the first time around he may have a shot.
Yeah, I was wrong about that one. Surprised they cut him since they have to pay him a million guaranteed.
They really like TJ. They have one more cut to go though. Tough that one guy is not going to play this year, but they knew he had health problems before they drafted him.

The Idaho Stampede would love to have Mr. Jackson return.

I would suspect he would head to OKC to reunite with his college coach.
Speaking of Florida Wilbekin was let go. He was very good in summer league and preseason. Can shoot as well.
Unpopular opinion alert:
I'd consider releasing C. Johnson and picking up Perry Jones since it appears Jones has cleared waivers now and can be picked up for less money. I know Jones's shortcomings and wouldn't really expect much out of him. But then again, Johnson may be inactive for most games as well.
Given where the Jazz are, I'd rather have a talented project as the 14th man than someone who may be a bit steadier with a lower ceiling. I also think whatever we can get out of Johnson could be replicated with a D-league call up, while the lineup versatility Jones potentially provides is a bigger long-term asset.
Johnson's major advantage (in addition to steady play) is shooting. Jones's is size, ball-handling, and defensive versatility. To the extent that the League is becoming a bit "positionless," I like that latter set of skills better.
