Utah Jazz: Breaking Down Player Acquisitions and Returns for 2016-17
Boris Diaw
The chances of Boris Diaw logging big minutes next season are slim, solely because he has three very talented big-men ahead of him in the depth chart; Derrick Favors, Trey Lyles and Rudy Gobert.
Still, Diaw possesses a unique talent–an innate ability to make plays for teammates from the power forward spot. If nothing else, he fits beautifully in the Jazz system and could be a great mentor for Lyles.
He also provides insurance in case of injuries on the front line–the Jazz were hampered by near-simultaneous injuries to Gobert and Favors last season.
