Lou Williams
Lou Williams was one of the Utah Jazz’s reported trade targets at the deadline this past year, but rather than end up in Salt Lake, he instead wound up as a member of the Houston Rockets. His stint there didn’t last long, however, as Williams was recently traded to the Los Angeles Clippers as part of the Chris Paul deal.
He’s certainly flawed on defense, but man, can this guy score. And given that the Jazz are so sturdy defensively but have few go-to guys on offense as their roster is currently constructed, bringing over a guy like Williams who can fill it up in a hurry and has averaged upwards of 15 points per game during each of the last three seasons could be an extremely nice boost for the Jazz next summer.
