SALT LAKE CITY — Three different phone numbers weren’t enough to reach former Jazz guard Rickey Green. Two connected to anonymous voicemails that weren’t his. The third was answered by a mellow guy who said, “I get a lot of calls for Rickey Green, but this isn’t him. But have a good one.”
The “Fastest of Them All” never was easy to chase down.
“We’ve tried I don’t know how many times to get ahold of him,” one Jazz publicist said. “He’s the hardest guy to reach.”
On Monday, the Jazz introduced the latest in a list of high-caliber point guards to play in Utah.
