I mean if he's cool chilling on the bench being moral support and a cheerleader then maybe. I'm a big fan of Booker, I like him a lot. But I don't really see a need in our rotation for what he provides. I think our rotation is set. I'd kinda rather have the roster spot Mitrou-Long currently holds available for 10 day contract signees. The Jazz will have the option to look at multiple young players. Maybe they'll find another diamond in the rough.

T-Book is one of those few guys that even if he doesn’t fill a glaring need, you look to add him when you’re in the midst of a playoff run. He’s an A+ locker room guy, he’s got the type of attitude that you want to expose a young Mitchell to, he loves the team/city and the team/city love him.
He might not play much, but then again, should the Jazz find themselves in the playoffs, he’s the type of guy that becomes invaluable when you’re in the middle of a grind it out type of tough playoff series. To be quite honest, I understood why the Jazz let him walk but I’ve been waiting for his return since the very second he left.
Plus, the idea of a roster that has Gobert/Favors/Crowder/ and Booker makes me fully chub up. Is there a tougher group of 4 guys in the league? Hell, is there a tougher group of 4 guys on this planet?
No thanks.
Is there any evidence his a great locker-room guy when he isnt playing (and I mean at all because I dont think there any minutes on this team for him)? I dont think Booker is at the point in his career when he wants to settle for being the glorified player/coach who doesnt play.
That isnt meant to be a knock on him. I'd just think he'd want to be on a team where he would play more, like New Orleans or something.

I don't think there are more than 5 players who would understand quin' s offense, style, defensive requirements, and that could add more to this season than Trevor Booker. I would love it!
I dont think Booker ever quite understood the offense while he was here.

Is Favors tough?
I don’t think I’d describe him like that. Rudy and Crodwer sure, even Ingles.

Yea, Id call Favors tough. He really tried to fight through his knee problems last year.
Kawhi is having similar issues this year (not the same injury, but similar) and he is being a big weeny about it.

Love Book but we don't have any room for him right now. Maybe this off season we can look at adding him as a backup if Favors goes or some roster changes are made.
