After playing for BM Slam Stal of the Polish Basketball League last season, point guard Mike Scott has reached an agreement with the Jazz on a one-year, minimum-salary deal, reports Nicola Lupo of Sportando.
Tony Jones of The Athletic adds that Scott, a point guard originally from Los Angeles, is expected to join the Jazz for camp before ultimately playing for Utah’s G League affiliate, the Salt Lake City Stars, during the 2019/20 season.
Scott, not to be confused with the Sixers forward who shares the same name, has spent the last four seasons overseas after coming out of Idaho in 2015. The 26-year-old averaged 11.8 PPG, 2.1 RPG and 4.5 APG in Poland last season.
With Scott soon to be under contract, the Jazz will have to make another move before finalizing the deal, as they already have 20 players on their offseason roster with the additions of Trevon Bluiett and Juwan Morgan a little less than one month ago.
Oh I was about to say. Mike Scott as in the guy for the Sixers? He must have dropped off a little bit.
I was confused too, this one’s obviously a different Mike Scott.
Speaking of “the other” Mike Scott, he has not ingratiated himself with the fans in Philly. Dude showed up to an Eagles tailgate party with a Redskins jersey on! Then gets into a fight with a bunch of Eagles fans, he may end up getting fined or possibly a suspension.
Old news, Sixers already announced that they were gonna do nothing about it.
