PG. Utah Jazz. RAUL NETO. C+.

Raul Neto is a tough player to evaluate.

He has proven to be a reliable back-up point guard, however, injuries and the emergence of Donovan Mitchell have largely made Neto an afterthought.

A wrist injury forced Neto out from mid-March until April 10th. Before that, he had an extended stint in the league’s concussion protocol. When healthy, Neto gives Utah’s second unit a more than capable floor general. Look for Neto to prove his worth this postseason.

I strongly believe that Neto would really improve if given a greater role. That opportunity might not come in Utah, though.
