Pleiss currently plays in a Spanish league (Liga ACB), but there is mutual interest in having the 25-year-old begin his NBA career with the Jazz.

SALT LAKE CITY — A big, 7-foot-2 German arrived in Salt Lake City late Saturday night, and he just might be a regular in these parts depending on what happens during his visit.

While in Utah, FC Barcelona center Tibor Pleiss will spend time discussing the possibility of joining the Jazz for this upcoming season.
