Kosta Koufos headed to Flash; Sundiata Gaines to be signed for season

SALT LAKE CITY — Kosta Koufos is about to get a lot more playing time.
It just won't be with the Utah Jazz.

On Monday, the Jazz plan on reassigning the second-year center to their
D-League affiliate, the Utah Flash, according to Jazz spokesman Jonathan
Rinehart.

Utah also intends to sign rookie point guard Sundiata Gaines for the
remainder of the NBA season on Monday, Rinehart indicated.

Koufos should join the Flash in time for a Monday morning shootaround
and could see action in their home game that night. Utah hosts the Maine
Red Claws, who are coached by former BYU guard Austin Ainge.

This will be the seldom-used Koufos' first trip to play with the Orem-based
Flash this season but the second stint with the D-League team in his pro
career.

Last year as a rookie, Koufos was sent down to the Flash on March 25, and
averaged 16.7 points, 8.4 rebounds, 2.6 blocks and 2.0 assists before begin
recalled after 10 games.

Koufos, who was drafted in 2008 after just one season at Ohio State, has
struggled in his rare playing time with the Jazz. The 20-year-old has only
appeared in 21 of Utah's 43 games, averaging just 1.3 points on 40.9 percent
shooting with 1.1 rebounds in a sparse 3.6 minutes per game.

As for Gaines, he has impressed the Jazz's front office since joining the
team almost three weeks ago.

Gaines, of course, is most famous for hitting a game-winning 3-pointer to
beat LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers just a week after being called
up on a 10-day contract from the D-League's Idaho Stampede.

He earned a second 10-day contract, and has appeared in eight games with the
Jazz so far. The University of Georgia product has averaged 2.9 points, 1.1
assists, 0.9 rebounds and 7.1 minutes thus far in his short NBA career.

Utah had to make a decision on Gaines' future by Sunday — when his second
10-day deal expired — and must notify league offices of its decision on
Monday.

動作真快!
 不上則已 一上下放
虧球隊還沒滿編甚至還缺額

不過有球打總比被冰成昨天那樣好
這樣應該也表示Fess差不多好了 不然一個不小心禁區可就沒人扛.....

推 sam369:為什麼不下放八百萬!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
推 MOTONARI:猛將兄簽一年也好 KOKO下放NBDL也好 都是好事
→ maxtail:NBDL等級還是有差 教皇想想辦法讓Koufos在實戰中成長吧 @@
推 MOTONARI:不急啊 明年BOOZER走之後 不想練也得練
推 nobody:koufos昨天打超爛 四失誤而且都很蠢的那種...
推 maxtail:冰壞了啦 好懷念去年代打先發的Koufos 想像無限哪
推 jeromeshih:會不會冰太久上場急於表現反而壓力大
推 jeromeshih:不過同樣都來球隊沒多久Matthews上場時間比兩新人中鋒
→ jeromeshih:都多不少,但是在籃球場不是長人應該比較有優勢
→ jeromeshih:因此許多球隊都會提供新秀長人多一些磨練機會
→ jeromeshih:還是在教皇觀念中,他不認為長人對他的戰術體系會有協助
→ jeromeshih:因此還是使用他比較習慣的輪替陣容?
推 MOTONARI:因為某個8M拿了這麼多錢 怎麼可能讓他坐太久
推 happyreach:KOKO最近的失誤真的真的有多 看來冰壞了
推 fallenmoon:籃網的等級不是跟NBDL差不多? 肯定是冰太久了
推 rangertsao:冰壞掉了 讓他有比賽可打是好事  我倒是覺得是個好決定
推 kirilenko47:到最後下場大概會跟阿蒙一樣~ 掰了KOKO
推 species:KK打得很糟吧,重點是他的中鋒基本動作還很菜,Andrew Bynum
→ species:也是在D-league練出來的呀,基本功先練好再回來也不遲
