John Konchar Injury: Moving to Utah
The Grizzlies traded Konchar (neck), Jaren Jackson, Jock Landale and Vince Williams to the Jazz on Tuesday in exchange for Walter Clayton, Taylor Hendricks, Kyle Anderson (illness), Georges Niang (foot) and three first-round picks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Konchar will battle with Svi Mykhailiuk, Brice Sensabaugh and others for reserve minutes at the wing positions for Utah. The 6-foot-5 back-up ends his time in Memphis after six-and-a-half seasons and 337 games during which he averaged 4.1 points, 0.8 steals and 0.6 three-pointers over 17 minutes per contest. He's been battling a minor neck injury before the trade and can be considered questionable for Thursday's game in Atlanta while the trade finalizes.
