Did the jazz by chance sign any undrafted free agents?

That is what I am trying to find out.

In the '13 draft thread Tarkanian brought up a great one to bring in. Christian Watford. Can shoot, has size, handles the ball, rebounds .. bring him in!

 

[Tarkanian]

I thought he was returning to Bloomington for his Sr. year?

Doh ... when I saw the name I was assuming an undrafted .. oops.

I just would like to know some of the names that the Jazz have contacted and who has agreed to come to summer league with the team. Does anyone have that information?

Give me a minute I'll check my sources....

Sorry, I forgot. Jazzfanz is pretty much the only place I find out stuff.

I'm pretty sure Wesley Matthews had a better PER than that as an undrafted Rookie. So, it's definitely not out of the realm of possibility, undrafted rookies sometimes are pretty good.

matthews' rookie PER was 12.3, but i see your point. my point is simply that stories like that are the exception. all 30 teams passed on kevin jones, some did so 2-4 times. so while thompson might have been a bit of a reach at #4 last summer, it's a pretty tall order to expect jones to outperform one of the better sophomores in terms of early production.

He is not a Jazz man but thought hat others would like to know.
