Brian Butch Signs With Jazz

9:46pm:  Brian Smith from the Salt Lake Tribune confirms the deal, tweeting that a person close to Butch described it as a "make-good deal."  According to Smith, the Jazz's roster is now at 15 and Butch will be competing with Darnell Jackson and Trey Gilder for a roster spot.  Smith averaged 15.3 points and 9.8 rebounds for the D-League's Bakersfield Jam last season.

7:59pm:  Brian Butch has signed with the Jazz, tweets Gery Woelfel of the Racine Journal Times.  After going undrafted in 2008 out of Wisconsin, Butch has bounced around the D-League and Europe.  This is undoubtedly a non-guaranteed deal that gives Butch nothing more than an opportunity to make the team in training camp.  We last heard from Butch less than a month ago when the Spurs brought him in for a workout.
