Mario Chalmers

Mario Chalmers’ comeback attempt was well publicized as he was one of four players who tried out for the Cleveland Cavaliers as the team looked to fulfill LeBron James’ plea of adding a playmaker. The Cavs have yet to make any sort of move there, so Chalmers is definitely still available at this point.

Chalmers isn’t an overly impressive point guard, but he has a significant amount of experience having played alongside LeBron James in each of the Miami Heat’s most recent championship appearances. As a two-time NBA Champion himself, Chalmers is more than capable of running the point for a spectacular offense and would be a capable addition off the bench for the Jazz.

He’s a solid finisher around the rim and was good for nearly ten points per game during his most influential years with the Heat and could likewise help bring some spark and flow to Utah’s second unit.

And considering how disappointing Utah’s reserve point guards have been this season, it would certainly be nice to at least have someone who has performed well enough to play a role in helping his team achieve on the highest stage.
