According to Wojnarowski, Utah was looking for another guard because of the potential of starter Ricky Rubio missing Saturday’s game against the Kings.
David Stockton, 25, has averaged 16.3 points and 5.2 assists for the Reno Big Horns in the G League. His father spent his entire NBA career (19 seasons) on the Jazz, making 10 All-Star appearances and 11 All-NBA teams. John is currently the all-time leader in assists with 15,806.
