[QUOTE] The [URL="https://www.nba.com/jazz/news/utah-jazz-sign-kinsey-langford-and-ongenda"]Utah Jazz have signed guard Taevion Kinsey (tay-VEE-on), guard/forward Romeo Langford, and center Nick Ongenda (on-GEN-duh).[/URL] Per team policy, terms of the deals were not released. Kinsey (6-5, 190, Marshall) played five seasons at Marshall (2018-23), appearing in 154 games (130 starts), owning averages of 17.1 points on 50.7 percent from the field, along with 4.9 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 1.1 steals in 34.1 minutes per contest and left the school as its all-time leading scorer with 2,641 points. He was named the 2022-23 Sun Belt Player of the Year following his final college season, with averages of 22.1 points, 5.4 assists, 4.9 rebounds, and 1.7 steals in 32 games (all starts), and was also named to the 2022-23 All-Sun Belt First Team. He competed for the Utah entries at 2023 Salt Lake City Summer League and NBA 2K24 Summer League.

If all these guys are officially signed than camp is full barring a last minute trade which I think could happen. I'd guess they won't be officially signed until later when some guys are cut from camp. Could still have at least 3 more Exhibit 10's. Also tells me Potter was never resigned as keeps getting reported despite never seeing anything official and these guys could be fighting for the final two way spot? Langford might not be eligible but obviously with 3 partial/non guarantees there is room to make the roster

He was huge last year in the Euro championships. Arguably the worst player on the Jazz last year outside The Bum of course. Who is sitting so he can play? He only played because of the trades. Samanic looked better
[url]https://saltcityhoops.com/which-x-factor-can-lead-the-jazz-to-the-playoffs/[/url]
The Bum getting hurt or traded
[QUOTE]Last season, after the Jazz traded away Mike Conley, Jarred Vanderbilt, and Malik Beasley, the Jazz finished the season with a 10-17 record. Over a full season that would be about a 30-win pace. During the majority of that stretch though, Jordan Clarkson and Collin Sexton also missed time. With those two guards healthy, coupled with the addition of John Collins and the three rookies, does that add 12-plus wins to last spring’s 30-win pace get the Jazz over .500 for the year?
[/QUOTE]
The Bum sucks and Sexton has yet to show he can stay healthy
[QUOTE]An important thing to remember about Collins that is often forgotten is that he will only be turning 26 years old on September 23. This isn’t projecting a 32-year-old to play like his 28-year-old self. John Collins should be entering his prime, and a potential Kessler, Collins, Markkanen front court could pose some major problems for opposing teams. They can have massive size, while still maintaining shooting across four positions with Kessler anchoring the defense.
[/QUOTE]
D has been their problem and I still have a hard time thinking playing big is the answer
[QUOTE]I can envision Ochai becoming the souped up version of what Royce O’Neale was for this team. Defend the best wing scorer on the other team, and move off-ball and knock down threes at a high-level on the other side. Ochai is taller than O’Neale, more athletic, and a much better shooter though. If he can become the player he’s capable of being sooner rather than later, he could be a major x-factor in helping the Jazz make the playoffs.
[/QUOTE]
bit early to say he's a better shooter

[QUOTE]He has suggested that the Utah Jazz trade Kelly Olynyk and Talen Horton-Tucker for Dinwiddie. Trading Horton-Tucker makes all the sense in the world, but if there’s a way to not trade Olynyk, I think the Jazz should pursue that option.
[/QUOTE]
you've got 2 rookie front court players that are going to need time eventually. Someone will have to go. Not sure how Dinwiddle fits. Need a 2
[url]https://thejnotes.com/2023/09/11/the-utah-jazz-may-be-one-of-the-deeper-teams-in-the-nba/[/url]
[QUOTE]The team does have holes, but they’re not exactly limited. Look at the point guard position, you could do worse than Jordan Clarkson or Collin Sexton taking over the role. And if you want a more traditional type, then you have Kris Dunn. Not an All-Star caliber crop of guys, but all three could be starters for a majority of the NBA’s teams.[/QUOTE]
actually hard to imagine you could have a worse pg than one that dribbles and throws up bad shots while not even seeing the other 4 guys on his team :facepalm
[QUOTE]Look at two guys who are coming off the bench in Simone Fontecchio and Kelly Olynyk. They were the star or featured players on their respective FIBA World Cup teams. Fontecchio got Team Italy to the quarter-finals and Olynyk allowed Team Canada to use different lineups simply due to his versatility.
[/QUOTE]
Simone was probably their worst player that wasn't The Bum last year
[QUOTE]And those are guys who are, in Fontecchio’s case, going to be competing for minutes and Olynyk’s case, going to be coming off the bench possibly as a sixth-man type.[/QUOTE]
Sexton, The Bum and possibly George are 6th men types not Olynyk

Utah connection too
[url]https://saltcityhoops.com/can-collin-sexton-be-the-guy-to-run-the-show/[/url]
No doubt in my mind. He learned a lot from Conley. His health is the concern with him
[QUOTE][I]Yet, [/I]the Jazz were only 6-9 in his 15 starts and clearly missed a more traditional offensive initiator. With him simply in rotation, the Jazz were average and a .500 team with a 24-24 win, loss record.
[/QUOTE]
He didn't have as good of a team around him once he was starting. Simone and Talen were on the bench before the trades
[QUOTE]Sexton is clearly the best shooter of the Jazz’s options at the point position. He can keep the floor spaced for all the bigs and knows how to get a bucket. With the bigs being a focal point this upcoming season, spacing will be important. If Jordan Clarkson pops off the bench in a 6th man role, Sexton’s shooting will be crucial alongside Ochai Agbaji. If JC starts, the backcourt partnership could be fire and give the Jazz a lethal starting five.
[/QUOTE]
whenever The Bum plays it will be ugly
[QUOTE][I]Yet, [/I]Sexton is a score-first guy, going back to his ‘Bama roots and the way he played in Cleveland. [URL="https://saltcityhoops.com/who-should-start-at-point-guard-for-the-jazz/"]John Keeffer of Salt City Hoops[/URL] pointed out that his assist-to-usage rate percentage has been in the bottom 30 percent for his position since entering the NBA. In fact, Keef notes that in the two seasons that Sexton averaged over 20 points per game for the Cavs, their Offensive Rating ranked 26th and 28th in the NBA, and they finished a combined 41-96.
[/QUOTE]
was fine last year. Conley schooled him well
[QUOTE]My bet? He starts game one for the 2023-2024 season, but not in 2028.
[/QUOTE]
probably be George after the deadline
[URL]https://thejnotes.com/2023/09/12/cameron-payne-will-open-market-soon-utah-jazz-pick/[/URL]
[QUOTE]A timeshare of Payne and Kris Dunn at the point would allow the Jazz to bring Keyonte George along at a reasonable pace in Year 1.
[/QUOTE]
after what we saw in summer league? Why? Sexton starts. George backup unless Sexton is moved
[QUOTE]Cameron Payne has shown good defensive prowess at times with Phoenix and is a more natural fit at point guard than Jordan Clarkson or Collin Sexton, who are both combo guards that are best utilized for their scoring.
[/QUOTE]
wouldn't you have to pass occasionally to be a combo guard? :roll:
They have 4 pg's. They aren't going after Payne
[url]https://thejnotes.com/2023/09/15/3-nba-players-utah-jazz-need-keep-eye/2/[/url]
[QUOTE]Now, he’s not just coming today, but should the Jazz find out that the likes of Kris Dunn [URL="https://thejnotes.com/2023/09/13/is-the-grade-for-the-utah-jazzs-collin-sexton-fair-or-foul/"]and Collin Sexton aren’t cutting it,[/URL] then you could make a case for Payton, who historically is a solid passer and a very good defender. He could also be an option if you end up trading guys like Dunn, Talen Horton-Tucker, and maybe someone like Sexton or Jordan Clarkson. Whether those players get traded for future prospects or draft picks, or as part of a larger trade to land a major player at some point this season; Payton could come in and be a big addition to the club.
[/QUOTE]
Dunn and Sexton are better and George will be. Also Talen is pretty unique
[QUOTE][h=2]Danilo Gallinari[/h][/QUOTE]
need another old 6'10 guy?
[QUOTE]A strong, defensive-minded wing could help you with that. He’s drawing some interest from other teams ever since he got released by the San Antonio Spurs, following a trade from the Cavaliers, but if he’s still available later in the year, the Jazz would be wise to look into his talents.
[/QUOTE]
a wing/SG they can use especially once The Bum is jettisoned
[url]https://thejnotes.com/2023/09/15/what-players-should-make-the-utah-jazzs-bench-rotation/[/url]
[QUOTE]So which one is it? Well, we’re not sure, but we’ll find out soon enough. One of the things that will help us decide if this team can compete or if they’re going to fail is their lineups and how deep this team truly is. The lineup isn’t set in stone yet, so the rotation isn’t figured out yet either, but for the sake of the article, let’s assume the starting lineup is Kris Dunn, Jordan Clarkson, Lauri Markkanen, John Collins, and Walker Kessler.[/QUOTE]
why would we assume Dunn is starting? He maybe should but I'd be surprised if it's not Sexton with George behind him. Hopefully Agbaji at the 2
[QUOTE]Dunn makes the lineup due to his defense and passing, as he’s the only point guard on the team that specializes in that. Everyone else is starting because they’re the best players at their positions on the team.
[/QUOTE]
The Bum is the worst player in the league for my money
[QUOTE]This is where it gets tricky, as Taylor Hendricks, Brice Sensabaugh, and Keyonte George all should get minutes, but then you have guys like Luka Samanic, Ochai Agbaji, Simone Fontecchio, Talen Horton-Tucker and Johnny Juzang who have all something to offer.
[/QUOTE]
Simone, Talen weren't playing until after the trade deadline so they are probably out. Simone was probably their worst player except The Bum. Taylor and Brice shouldn't get minutes unless they earn it. Stars are there for a reason. George already showed something. I expect Hendricks will. We'll see. Samanic looks like a rotation piece too. Juzang is on a 2 way so he won't be a rotation player. Agbaji should start
[QUOTE]Hendricks missed all off-season action and so his skills are not yet proven to be what they’re hyped up to be. Sensabaugh may not even be truly ready until the winter, and Agbajia, Horton-Tucker, and Juzang are just going to have to bide their time.
[/QUOTE]
be shocked if Agbaji isn't playing
[url]https://thejnotes.com/2023/09/16/did-the-utah-jazz-make-a-mistake-trading-jarred-vanderbilt/[/url]
He's worth that money. Ideally he'd be an energy guy coming off the Jazz bench though and that might be a tough sell

Utah has so many rotation-level players that it doesn’t make sense to leave them on the bench all season. When you consider how many picks they’ll be making, over the next 10 years, they have to be active to continue upgrading at each position. If they don’t make trades and their draft picks supplant their starters, they’ll lose assets for nothing. That’s not something I could ever see Danny Ainge doing

[QUOTE]
Look, you have to draw the line somewhere, and there is probably always going to be arguments for those players right on the line, but Clarkson has an argument to be nowhere near the line. From across those websites listed above, here are the players that barely made the cut:
Grant Williams
Gary Payton II
Markelle Fultz
Bruce Brown
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope
Alex Caruso
Nic Claxton
[/QUOTE]
all guys I'd take over The Bum. The fact that he is even in the league makes him overrated
[QUOTE]The Utah Jazz stayed relatively competative compared to the expectations to start last season, and many will point to the jump into stardom for Markannen, but they fail to recognize the jump that Clarkson made as he transitioned into not just a starter, but a player being asked to run the offense. He responded to the additional responsability by averaging over 20 points per game for the first time in his career, and becoming a much better facilitator, with 4.4 assist per game. Up from his career average of 2.5 assist coming into the season. Clarkson has evolved his game to become one of the smoothest scorers in the league. Someone who is truly capable of scoring at every level, while also continue to grow as a player who can lead an offense under Will Hardy.
[/QUOTE]
Smooth certainly isn't the way I'd describe Dribbling the shot clock out and shooting a prayer that is usually a brick! :facepalm

[QUOTE]It’s an interesting note from the podcast and definitely matches what we saw during [URL="http://www.sbnation.com/nba-summer-league"]NBA Summer League[/URL] when George lit the court on fire. It’s also a reminder that it’s a shame that Taylor Hendricks and Brice Sensabaugh couldn’t play, not just because it’s a chance for fans to watch them play, but also it’s great experience leading into training camp. George was tasked with being a playmaker, and he showed just that. It’s going to be interesting as the season goes on if George works his way to that starting role. If he continues to show his ability to score at three levels, along with the impressive assist numbers he showed, it should be sooner than later.
[/QUOTE]
I'd guess by the trade deadline that he is the guy
[QUOTE]MacMahon mentions that the Jazz look at Collin Sexton as a sixth man. The Jazz had him in that role most of last season so that’s not a surprise. Sexton quietly had a great offensive season for the Jazz having the most efficient scoring line of his career. If he comes into that role again, the Jazz know what they’re getting, and there’s no doubt he can do that again. The only issue is there are going to be a lot of mouths to feed. The Jazz have new rookies, a new starter in John Collins, and there’s going to be a lot of improvement across the board. The story of this season will be seeing how the team changes and develops as the season goes on.
[/QUOTE]
can't see him not being the starter. He might eventually make the most sense as a 6th man but The Bum as your starting 1? :facepalm

[QUOTE]Sexton will have to make an impact on the court. Too often last year, he played well enough but just didn't stand out. This year, he needs to make himself known every time he steps on the court. He must find ways to impact the game outside of scoring. If he can prove valuable in other areas of the game, he can avoid the worst-case scenario.
[/QUOTE]
He stood out to me. Plays hard at both ends of the floor. Biggest question is can he stay healthy with that body and the way he plays?

[url]https://thejnotes.com/2023/09/19/former-utah-jazz-center-rudy-gobert-washed/[/url]
[QUOTE]The Utah Jazz made the right call to trade Rudy Gobert when they did. Not due to his apparent decline that was sudden and dramatic, but because he was making too much money and the team couldn’t really improve around him. So they traded him to the Minnesota Timberwolves for a host of picks and Walker Kessler.
[/QUOTE]
the only reason you make that trade is because of what they got in return. They make the Cavs trade and keep Gobert they would have been one of the top teams in the league. You improve by subtraction
[QUOTE]And while Raptor Stats may be dead thanks to corporate malarky, the fact is Gobert was still the highest-rated player on the T-Wolves team last year when it came to defensive excellence (among eligible players). Gobert is far from done, the narrative around him is just wrong and overblown. Sure, he’s not a good fit next to Karl-Anthony Townes.
[/QUOTE]
remains to be seen. Towns was out most of the year

[QUOTE]So the three names that do make sense for the Jazz are LaVine, Murray, and Herro. LaVine is the kind of guy who could do some serious damage on his own, as he’s a near-elite scorer from almost every level. He’s got good court-vision and if he was the starting point guard for the Jazz, his assist numbers may double.

[url]https://thejnotes.com/2023/09/25/the-utah-jazz-are-willing-to-spend-to-get-tyler-herro/[/url]
[QUOTE]It’d also give the Jazz a bonafide scorer to pair with Lauri Markkanen and Jordan Clarkson, giving the Salt Lake City crew a shot at winning the west with arguably the best-scoring trio in the league. Sure, the defense will suck, but you’ll see a lot of 120+ point games from the Jazz, so that’s something.

[QUOTE][URL="https://thejnotes.com/2023/09/21/way-jordan-clarkson-doesnt-start-sg-utah-jazz-starts-pg/"]He’s a starting caliber guard[/URL], and both MacMahon and Lowe agree, but you need a lineup around him that brings out his best, and that’s why Agbaji doesn’t work. He’s a shooter, who can play some solid defense but he doesn’t fit next to Clarkson and the other starting three. Someone has to set up the offense and it won’t be Kessler or Collins. If Agabji is the guy you want to start, you have to sit Clarkson.
