According to David Aldridge of TNT Sports, the Utah Jazz have finally signed Trey Lyles to his rookie scale contract, ending a period when he missed summer league practice and games.
The youngster from South Australia will once again help Jazz’s wing rotation behind Hayward, Burks, and Rodney Hood.
With two minutes left Exum drove to the basket, landed on another opponent’s foot and rolled his left ankle. Young had a mediocre rookie year, and is quickly moving toward the point where he’ll be considered a bust and a sunk cost if he can’t turn things around. “We were just talking about that, how we can show him playing off the ball screen, how he’s patient and lets it happen, how the other guys on the team can watch it. He’s mature beyond his years and he just gets more confident”. The staff will also hold a clinic for coaches as part of the week’s events.
Ingles follows Boomers teammate Aron Baynes who agreed to a three-year $US20 million deal with Detroit Pistons over the weekend. He said he will be evaluated Tuesday.
While the Spurs have been the talk of free agency over the past few days, their summer league roster doesn’t have many big names.
“I’m a competitor, I want to play”, Lyles said.
