Five Available Free Agents the Utah Jazz Should Consider

Jarrett Jack

After being cut by the Atlanta Hawks earlier in the year, Jarrett Jack is another player who is reportedly seeking to make an NBA comeback. In his last year in Brooklyn during the 2015-16 season, Jack put up an impressive 12.8 points and a career-high 7.4 assists per game.

His ability to set up his teammates for open shots as well as his craftiness for finding his own shot had made him an absolute commodity for teams prior to his lingering knee issues. If Jack has recovered well and is regaining any portion of his former quickness, he could work absolute wonders for the Jazz off the bench.

He has been a solid albeit unheralded role player for years most notably as a backup for the Golden State Warriors in the 2012-13 season. That year he averaged 12.9 points per game while shooting 45.2 percent from the field and 40.4 percent from deep and came up huge for them in the playoffs by putting up 17.2 points per game.

Yes, that was quite a few years back now, but Jack has a unique combination of skills and experience along with a veteran toughness and savvy understanding of the game that would allow him to be a critical piece of Utah’s bench unit moving forward.
