SALT LAKE CITY — In three different transactions this offseason, the Utah Jazz acquired well-seasoned veterans George Hill, Joe Johnson and Boris Diaw.
So much for being the least-experienced and youngest team in the NBA.
This isn’t your grandchildren’s Jazz anymore.
The rapidly aging Jazz made their latest move on Tuesday afternoon, striking a deal with the San Antonio Spurs to acquire French big man Boris Diaw in exchange for the rights of point guard Olivier Hanlan.
That pending trade, first reported by The Vertical, gives the Spurs enough salary space to facilitate the signing of free agent big Pau Gasol later this week.
