Utah Jazz waive guard Chris Johnson

The Utah Jazz roster is now down to the maximum of 15 players heading into the season after the release of lefty wingman Chris Johnson. It seems like the Jazz brass had a hard time making their decision, as they left this to the (nearly) last minute.

Over his time here CJ played in a total of 82 games across 2 seasons, even starting in a couple games last year. He averaged 4.4 points, 2.0 rebounds, 0.6 assists, and 0.6 steals in 14 min/game. He came to us via a 10-day contract back in the 2014-2015 season, and earned a longer (but non-guaranteed) contract with the Jazz.
