It was five years ago that the Utah Jazz took a chance on a lanky Hilltopper from Western Kentucky with the No. 55 pick of the 2010 NBA Draft. Although he often spent more time at the end of the bench than on the floor in his tenure with the team, this spring-footed stringbean left an indelible mark on the franchise.
Of course I’m talking about Jeremy Evans, a man who was beloved by Jazz Nation in equal measure for his explosive leaping ability on the court and a pleasant, soulful demeanor off of it.
