Utah Jazz add Stephaun Branch, then trim roster to 17

Opening night in the NBA is just days away now and, as such, teams are finalizing their rosters for tip-off. The Utah Jazz are no different, and while the 17-man crew for Wednesday’s bout with the Sacramento Kings (including two two-way players) looks exactly as expected, there was a flurry of roster activity over the weekend.

The Jazz began Saturday by waiving big man Isaac Haas, which freed up a spot on their camp roster. That spot was quickly filled when the team inked Stephaun Branch to a deal. Branch’s tenure with the Jazz was short-lived, however, as he was waived in short order along with fellow guards Jairus Lyles and Isaiah Cousins.
