Luol Deng ends up in Utah (Rumour)

Deng basically zaps away all of the Lyles minutes-- Lyles at the 5 hasn't been particularly effective.

I don't mind it, but I can't see Deng being a fan of this tbh. If he was okay with 20-25mpg I don't see why we don't do this

I'd assume he'd take all of Booker's and CJ's minutes

Didn't Dr Jones have info about a trade with Indiana using the #12 pick that would bring George to Utah? Might have been the wrong year, the wrong #12 and the wrong George, but it did happen.

If Deng comes in, at 6'9", he'll be a 3/4 combo forward - ideally one that will hit 35-36% from 3. he won't play any 2.

he played about half his minutes at 5 for Miami this year. He has the versatility that Quin and Dennis like. Certainly can defensively switch onto 2s but won't play the 2.

Yes, sorta...
Wrong year, wrong pick, etc... but Jazz were in intense talk with George's camp. Didn't work out, obviously.

I'm happy to not share what I hear if y'all prefer. No difference to me.

I'm not giving you a hard time, I'm just pointing out the irony. I love hearing the info. Deng would be a good pickup, especially if its only a 2 year deal. Keep giving us the info please, I enjoy it.

yep, definitely comes in more as a big than a wing. but as you say can switch onto guards and be fine. really good fit in Utah.

Which George? When was this? Sounds interesting. Let me in on this.
