SALT LAKE CITY — USC big man Chimezie Metu is familiar with Utah, having played here a couple of times while playing for the Trojans.
He was back in town Wednesday morning as one of six players in for a workout with the Utah Jazz, who could select him with one of their two picks in the upcoming NBA draft.
Metu is a 6-11, 225-pounder, who led the Trojans in scoring last year at 15.7 ppg and led the team in rebounding for two straight years, 7.8 rpg and 7.4 rpg, respectively. He's an athletic combo big man, who is known for his defense but is adding an outside shot to his game.
