C. . PG. Utah Jazz. RAUL NETO

Not much to say about Raul Neto.

He provides decent depth at the point guard position and has played meaningful minutes in the past for the Jazz. While Neto fills his role well, he has already had five DNPs this season. Neto’s defensive tenacity is entertaining and he has shown that he can be a streaky shooter when given the opportunity.

Unfortunately for Neto, Utah is committed to developing Mitchell as soon as possible which means that Neto has primarily been relegated to garbage minutes this season.

If the Jazz are forced to call upon Neto due to injuries, at least they know that they have a competent back-up on the roster.
