SALT LAKE CITY — Joe Ingles’ path to Utah was untraditional, to say the least.
The Australian traveled overseas, playing in four different countries to being waived by the Los Angeles Clippers to now being respected as one of the league’s top shooting guards, according to Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr.
“What a story,” Kerr said ahead of Utah’s home opener against the Warriors on Friday. “He’s a great passer, great feel for the game.
“He’s become an outstanding three-point shooter, and he’s got major size defensively; he just drapes himself all over people,” he added.
