SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – It’s been a busy off-season for the Jazz from the front office to the players but the starters and cornerstones of the franchise are in Utah to support the Summer League team.
Joe Ingles returned to Salt Lake City after spending most of his off-season thus far in Australia. Dante Exum was seen in the stands as well as the Jazz Summer League team played the Memphis Grizzlies at Vivint Smart Home Arena.
It’s the first of three nights, but the fans applauded the veterans when they were shown on the jumbotron.
Donovan Mitchell has been extremely busy this summer with the release of his signature Adidas sneaker this week, he still made the time to show his support for the Jazz hopefuls.
