Summer League is an audition and Georges Niang knows as well as anyone that a good performance here can get you a job.
After securing a full deal with the Utah Jazz following a standout summer a year ago, Niang wasn’t playing Monday night at Vivint Smart Home Arena—but he might have still been angling for a gig. The Jazz forward joined Craig Bolerjack, Thurl Bailey and Kristen Kenney on the television broadcast, showing off some of the skills he recently acquired at the National Basketball Player Association’s “Broadcaster U”.
“It’s definitely something I could see myself doing post-career,” Niang said.
