Bojan Bogdanovic can't wait to get started with the Utah Jazz after officially signing his four-year, $73.1 million contract with the team.
Bogdanovic revealed what intrigued him about playing for the Jazz.
“Just seeing that the Jazz are a real contender every single year,” Bogdanovic told Aaron Falk of Jazz.com. “Last year, we had 50 wins in the West and seeing all these free agents coming to our side and our way, makes me really, really excited. I cannot wait to start preseason and the first regular season games.”
The Jazz have had a great offseason. Along with signing Bojan Bogdanovic, Utah also traded for point guard Mike Conley.
This past season with the Indiana Pacers, Bogdanovic averaged 18.0 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.0 assists while shooting 49.7 percent from the field, 42.5 percent from beyond the arc and 80.7 percent from the free-throw line. The swingman is going to stretch and space the floor very well for Utah, who had to trade sharpshooter Kyle Korver to the Memphis Grizzlies in order to acquire Conley.
Donovan Mitchell and Mike Conley are elite slashers and Rudy Gobert commands double-teams in the post. Bogdanovic is going to get a lot of wide-open looks from the 3-point line in 2019-20 with the Jazz.
