I'm intrigued by Dionte Christmas (averaged ~20 ppg for 3 straight years at Temple), Drew Gordon (double-double machine), and William Burford (decent shooter from deep).

I think Gordon could definitely play a role off the bench as a big man.

This is in addition to the players already on our real roster. This is all about players we haven't signed yet.

Damn, beat me to it! Christmas and Buford would be solid additions for the league minimum for our team.

I like Drew Gordon as well.
 
I am really surprised that Evans and Burks are on this.

I agree I think both of them might take this as a slap in the face. Burks and Evans have been in the league long enough the coaching staff should know what they have in them.

What do they have to gain from playing here and what does our coaching staff gain from having them here?

This will be a good test to see where Burks is. He should DOMINATE this league. If he doesn't then we will all have a better idea of what kind of player he will be.
 
How Burks performs in Summer League will tell us almost nothing.

Sad reflection on Jazz, not Burks or Evans that they are back again. At this point in their careers (2 nba seasons for Burks, 3 for Jeremy) they should be developed beyond anything they can learn at Summer league.

Luckily by the looks of that roster this summer is all about them.
 
6 of the 24 guys from the FA mini-camp are on the summer league roster:

Will Buford
Drew Gordon
Rodney Green
Rick Jackson
Rasid Mahalbasic
Chris (not douglas) Roberts

That seems like money well spent.

I think it's more of a sad reflection on KOC's era...

Goes to show you can't cling to the past.. gone are the days when Stockton had to wait 3 years for a start. These kids are developing younger and quicker.

Signs are the Lindsey era is much different... a lot of outside the box thinking, a lot more investment in scouting, etc.
