Free-agent forward Trevor Booker has agreed to a two-year, $10 million deal with the Utah Jazz, a league source told Yahoo Sports on Tuesday. After four years with the Washington Wizards, Booker brings his strong, physical frontcourt presence to the Jazz.
Booker, 26, averaged 6.8 points on 55.4 percent shooting and 5.3 rebounds for the Wizards in the 2013-14 season. In four seasons with Washington, he averaged 6.4 points and 5.1 rebounds.
Booker was the 23rd overall pick in the 2010 NBA draft out of Clemson.
Does anybody know anything about him? I honestly haven't watched the Wizards at all in recent years.

Man he has a pretty shot! 
Hard to believe they didn't go in during the first game because his shot is perfect.

Trevor Booker signed. 2yr $10mil.... A bit if an overpay but I like him off the bench. Kanter needs to step up his game if he wants to play. With Favors, Gobert, Booker and Evans(Novak too I guess), there will be a huge fight for minutes.

Yeah I think $5M is a bit much too but the whole market this year is full of ridiculous contracts so I'll take it. It looks like he can be a great guy to have off the bench when Favors needs a rest.

Man its hard not to believe that he could easily lead the league in blocks if he was getting plenty of minutes. Kanter is really gonna have to step up like sa said if he expects to keep minutes away from Gobert.

CJ Williams. Undrafted rookie.
I like the Bucks roster. Giannis, Parker, Inglis, Henson and Wolters will be fun to watch. Sanders too if he returns to his old form
