TAYLORSVILLE — Karl Malone. Paul Millsap. Recognize those names?
Heavyweights in the Utah Jazz organization, right?
In addition to being former Jazz stars, Malone and Millsap also share a common thread as Louisiana Tech alumni.
Following the footsteps of those former Jazzmen is highly unlikely for any young prospect, but the Jazz have reached back to Ruston, Louisiana, to bring in yet another Bulldog, with new two-way signee Erik McCree.
“I always talk to my head coach,” McCree said of Louisiana Tech. “I bleed blue and red. I love my school.
"Paul Millsap, he came back a few times to play pick-up with us,” he added.
