Tadija Dragicevic? 

Post#1 » by ukjfazzfan » Sat Aug 7, 2010 6:41 am

Can anyone provide an update on this guy? He was on the summer league roster but did not play for some reason. Any chance we see him in training camp?

He had some sort of injury. he was physically there so it wasn't shenanigans. He wouldn't be a bad 15th guy to consider. If the FO knows more about him, great. He was never expected, and if he ends up contributing, bonus.

He's still under contract with his Euro team, and was brought over just to see if he had any potential to play here in the future. But he had a bad wheel during the SL and was sent home early.

Maybe he tries to play again next season in Orlando and the Jazz consider bringing him over with the extra cap space we should have.

He is, but then again it's also been rumored that he's not in the team's (Virtus Rome) future plans so he probably won't play there next season. They might be asking for some money to buy him out though.
Either way, he's probably not going to join the team anytime soon, if ever. I'm not really sure about him becoming a productive rotation player in the NBA, and he can definitely get more money and minutes in Europe rather than sitting on our bench or playing in the D-League for a minimum salary. But if at some time he's willing to give it a try and the Jazz are willing to give him a chance, go for it as long as it's cheap... I've been wrong in the past.
