After being waived on Saturday by New Orleans, free agent guard Kobe Bufkin has agreed to sign a two-way contract with the Jazz, reports Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report and The Stein Line (Twitter link). Utah doesn’t currently have an open two-way slot, so the team will need to waive one of its current two-way […]

I don’t know about you, but I think that we’ve been waiting WAY too long for the season to come around. I can only survive on Darryn Peterson workouts and Keyonte George quotes for so long. I need some real action. In my spare time, like a reasonable adult, I go back and watch games from when I was growing up. Now I’m 31 years old, so the guys I grew up with were Deron Williams, Carlos Boozer, Andrei Kirlenko, and 1x All-Star Mehmet Okur. Sure, we expected more out of them, but they were fun ...

It’s been four long seasons. 1,511 days of Groundhog Day since the Donovan Mitchell trade. Why did we do that? Should the Jazz try to win? Should they tank? Is tanking a violation of the Jazz Way? Are we tanking hard enough? Oh no, why did we start 11-3? This is terrible for our future! All irrelevant now. While the tank wasn’t perfect, it’s over. In the words of Coach Dale in Hoosiers, “My team is on the floor.” And, unlike in fall 2022, ‘23, ‘24, and ‘25 seasons, that’s a hopeful statement,...

This was the first time that I’ve been able to have my work be pub...
