Did he sign with the Jazz or the last week news was just a rumour?

I hope it is not a journalistic hoax and he will play for the Jazz...he seems a good player!

He has not signed yet. However, on Locke's podcast yesterday he indicated that it was still quite likely.
 
He's holding out for a max contract.
What impresses him most about Utah is they've already named a town after him.

He's not so happy that Utah misspelled it, though.

In your spare time, you can change all the street signs.

Hey I have a great marketing idea: let's start a cycling event and call it the Toure Murry. Starts at the Larry H. Miller Toyota (his first dealership?) and includes the Jordan River Parkway, Wheeler Historic Farm, etc. Race concludes at Murry City Park where sponsorship booths can be set up. Shawn Bradley, David Archuleta and Ken Jennings, who are all (or were) residents can serve as the co-hosts/celebs for the event.

Genessy & Falk (Twitter) both confirming reports today that Murry has officially signed with the Jazz.
 
I'm guessing the Jazz are being pretty proactive about their D-League roster. Any other teams doing this kind of guaranteed signing of players likely to be at their affiliate the majority of the year?

Yess great news!!! Jazz roster is looking really interesting....I can't wait for the preseason to start!

DL did a great job this summer...let's give credit to him!

The only drawback has been Hayward contract...but it will serve as a lesson for him to handle better Kanter and Burks contracts!
 
What's the difference between Murry & Felix? Both can defend & hit the three. I know Felix had a lot of rebounds in college (he played a lot of minutes) and he can also dribble inside and score.

From the Murry highlights I've seen he looks to have good court vision and he's a good passer.

Anyone familiar with either player that can add some thoughts?

It's funny. Some articles I've read call him a SG and some call him a converted PG. I know he played some point for the Knicks but he doesn't look like a PG when he brings it up the floor. But to call him a combo guard is fair.
 
I love what the Jazz are doing in terms of their philosophy. We are going after ball handling players. Guys who can run the pick and roll. They don't have to have the ball in their hands. but they can be effective if given the opportunity.
Which IMO means tons of ball movement. Summer league showed that also. As the Spurs say....."Don't let the ball stick".

I love Snyder's philosophy on how he doesn't believe in positions on offense. As long as you can defend on the other end.

Toure Murry fits that mold. Will he make the team? Not sure. but I like the type of players we are going after.

Bring in the 15 best players Lindsey can find each year, have Snyder coach them up and see who develops and wants to remain in Utah. Guys like Booker, Felix, Murry, etc...all can provide depth. This is honestly the first season I want to see all 15 guys get floor time. Not going to happen every game, of course, but I hope the inactives are rotated every few games. Even Motum (if he makes the team) showed some promise in SL. Win or lose, the Jazz are going to be interesting to watch. There is serious competition up and down the roster; I have no doubt we're going to see maximum effort from everyone.
