Highlights from his best game as a pro, probably an upgrade over Mudiay:

Seems like a decent pickup..... I'm surprised he's 6'7......

That would make more sense, he doesn't look 6'7, but both NBA.com and Basketballreference list him as 6'7...... I guess they haven't updated after NBA said to list actual, not made up height.......

I think that's just a mistake. Harrison is probably not even 6'4" although he's pretty long for his size.

Really like this pickup btw. Jazz get a legit perimeter defender for the minimum. He's offensively challenged so it's hard to envision him getting big minutes (unless his 3P% of last season was not a fluke, but the sample size was really small) but he is exactly the kind of player any good team should have as a bench option.

I think this guy could actually be a 10-15 minute per night rotation player within a year or two. I am not saying a star player but a role player. Look where he has played (1st year in Phoenix and the last 2 years in Chicago with Boylen). In the past 3 years those two teams have to be among the 5-7 worst teams in the league. I wish Johnnie Bryant was still around to work with him along with Hughes and Oni. I kind of wish they could have gotten a 2nd year with a partial guaranty instead of just 1 year. Either way, IMO a solid signing by the FO.

Solid pick-up for the Mudiay slot, a likely upgrade.
