Utah Jazz: Stars Acquire Rights to Henry Sims

Ever on the search for hidden gems and untapped talent, Utah Jazz decision makers have auditioned multiple free agents for workouts over the last week. Among them was Henry Sims, a free agent center whose most recent NBA stop was a 14-game stint with the Brooklyn Nets last season.

Apparently Jazz brass liked what they saw from the big man.

Utah’s D-League affiliate, the Salt Lake City Stars, announced on Friday that the team had completed a trade to acquire Sims’ returning player rights. In return, the Grand Rapids Drive will receive the Stars’ own original 2016 first-round draft pick, which falls at No.
