In their first Las Vegas Summer League game, the Utah Jazz looked like a much-improved team from their 0-3 games on Salt Lake City and beat the Atlanta Hawks, 72-66
It’s been fun to watch Jared Butler’s improvement this offseason with his playmaking. Butler’s first game in SLC was a little underwhelming in terms of shooting, but his playmaking this summer has been solid. Tonight, Butler was poised and confident setting up his teammates in transition or in the half court and ended the night with 15 points and 7 assists. If he can continue his growth, it’s a great sign for his future with the team.
