Between the Utah Jazz Blue and Utah Jazz White, three players stood out over the course of the Salt Lake Summer League.

The Salt Lake City Summer League drew to a conclusion on Friday, with the Utah Jazz White handily defeating the Utah Jazz Blue 83-65. For Jazz fans, the summer league presents an opportunity to watch players that, in all likelihood, will not crack Head Coach Quin Snyder’s regular rotation throughout the 2021-22 NBA season.

The Utah Jazz are firmly entrenched in title contention, and that usually means there are few minutes to spare for rookies and sophomores on the fringes of the league.

Still, opportunity is like an annoying neighbour: it has a tendency to pop-in for unexpected visits. An injury to a key veteran, a mid-season trade or another unforeseen circumstance could have any of the following players checking into a regular season game before they expected to. Here are three guys who increased their NBA stock during the Salt Lake City Summer League.
