The Church of Joseph "Jingles" Ingles

I always thought he would need to get to speed with the NBA game and how his fits in with it. Honestly, he has been an absolute bargain. A big reason for our improvement this year.
 
tbh Jingles has been one of my favourite players to watch this season.
 
He has been playing well last three or four games. His stats this year make you think he is not an NBA level player though. Still those who know him from the Euroleague and the World Cup are aware of what he's capable of doing. I mean we still may need to wait a bit more to see him completely adjust to the NBA game and bring his A game consistently. It may never happen but if it does, the Jazz know they have their Spursesque high-IQ player.
 
I'll say it again. The dude looks like he smells like beer and cigarettes and I ****ing love him.

BTW, I met him at Smith's the other day. He's not as big as I thought he was.....
 
Ingles is now listed at the 10th spot on Rookie Ladder prepared by Scott Howard-Cooper.

He had this to say about the experienced and witty Aussie Jazzman:

There is nothing special in the numbers, not at 3.4 points or 2.1 assists or 18.2 minutes, and certainly not at 39.9 percent from the field as a shooting guard. But Ingles is now a starter and brings toughness, intelligence and maturity befitting a 27-year-old with extensive international experience. He's also a good passer who can play both wing spots. He did not get to Utah on flash or to mentor to fellow Australian Dante Exum. Ingles is averaging 25.8 minutes as a starter because his understated contributions are valued, by the Jazz and the Ladder.
