Thursday was a big day in Utah Jazz land and it had nothing to do with the upcoming NBA Draft, free agency or former Jazzman Enes Kanter and the Oklahoma City Thunder failing to end the Golden State Warriors season.
It was Mehmet Okur‘s birthday.
Okur spent more than six years with the franchise, averaging better than 15 points and seven rebounds per game. The Jazz legend, who represented the team in the 2007 All-Star Game and also won an NBA championship with the Detroit Pistons in 2004, is now 37 years old.
