Jazz To Sign Justin Holiday

The Jazz are expected to sign Justin Holiday to a make-good contract, a source told Marc J. Spears of Yahoo Sports (via Twitter).  Holiday was cut loose by the Sixers last month and waited roughly six weeks to hook on with another club.

The 24-year-old saw time in just nine games for Philly after being signed late last season.  The University of Washington product, who is the brother of Jrue Holiday, averaged 17.3 PPG in 47 D-League contests.

Holiday picked up significant interest from Italy after being released by the Sixers, but it's not clear if he was ever giving that serious consideration.  The guard also auditioned for the Heat, but he likely feels that his best chance at a roster spot will come from Utah.
