Yogi Ferrell signs with Jazz.

I think we have enough wing depth and RHJ should have better options but I’m also shocked they waived him. He was really good in the preseason... why waive him after him doing good? Weird.

I think if we were looking at it from the playoffs only lens then RHJ has a better chance of impacting a series. I’d like our young wings but RHJ might have a more positive effect than Hughes or Brantley. I think Miye needs some time and I’d be reluctant to play RHJ in front of him.

I’m definitely curious about some of our young guys, but that curiosity can easily fizzle out. In the same way that Clarkson is microwave offense when you’re struggling, this guy is microwave energy when you need a quick shot. I think that can have a pretty strong impact. We do still need a really tough guy, and I think doing that by committee will show some limitation.

if we need a streaky small guard with no D, yogi is not even top 3 available in that category. Both shabazz napier and allonzo trier are still available and can be had at min.

Maybe he did not want to play in G-League or got a better offer

I really thought Yogi was brought in to travel with the roster. Tough break for Yogi, he's too overqualified to be a G-League guy but there aren't as many spots this year with everyone holding 15.

So Jazz are back down to 14 and have a roster spot open again

Shouldn't have kept stealing all of those picnic baskets.

If we signed RHJ, that’s pretty much my off-season sans OPJ.

He is available along with Gerald Green and Courtney Lee who hit the waiver wire today.

The DN just ran a story that Yogi and Miller are going to the Stars.

I think some are making way too much meaning of a minimum contract signing. This is just about adding depth and I like the move. I think he would be a great fit for us as a backup guard.

Is it an actual contract or one of those GLeague thingies?

I think they get $50,000 for signing and then earn the GLeague wage.
