Jazz sign Justin James to second two-way

[LogGrad98]

I’ve been sitting on this for a bit and was going to wait until there was an official announcement but I’ll go ahead and spill the beans: I’ve accepted the two-way contract this year. Jazz brass mulled over what they needed from that last roster spot and decided having a full time meme/thread maker would provide more value than someone playing in the G League. I’ll let you all know when my jerseys go on sale.

I already bought 2.

It's possible that someone like Derrick Alston looked really good in camp.

This entire saga is just a little bit more than weird. If the guy sucked that bad surely someone around the league knew that. Perhaps Rudy Gay's new injury changed things. Or the guy is a total cancer and talentless bum.

Hard to say. Maybe he felt like he didn't have a good chance to make the team and he wanted out. If Jared Butler has been playing well, then maybe James didn't think he had a path. Lets see if there's another move coming. Or maybe he got caught with 5 strippers, and the Jazz said, "Hey, you're no Michael Jordan."

Macio Teague must be killing it in camp. He and Butler have great chemistry. Keep the pair!

Another guy that killed it in camp and preseason last year was NWG and Quin sent him to the gallows as quickly as he could.

I guess having camp in Vegas can help you see what a player is all about. I have no idea if James was into anything he shouldn't be, but Vegas is certainly one place that will bring out the worst in folks.

Well I hope for James's sake that it's because he found a better overseas payday and the Jazz decided to let him pursue that.

If not, it won't look good to other teams for him to have been let go so quickly.

I guess the third possibility is that the Jazz really, really like someone who became available, but hadn't expected to. But this seems the most unlikely of the three.

The Kings had decided to waive him earlier in the month so there are warts there.

Maybe, but my first thought was Marquis Bolden. His strength, length and agility make him an intriguing prospect, I mean besides the Duke pedigree.
