Kosta Koufos' Commute Just Got Longer

According to Steve Luhm, The KOOF is being sent down to the Utah Flash,
The Jazz just announced that second-year center/power forward Kosta Koufos is being sent to the Utah Flash of the NBA Developmental League.
Koufos practiced with the Jazz on Sunday morning. He will report to the Flash in time to play in Monday night's home game against the Maine Red Claws.
It is a bit surprising given that the Jazz barely have 13 players on the roster right now. Given that he's likely to be placed on the inactive list most nights, having the KOOF in Utah County won't affect their minimum roster requirements. Should something happen to one of the bigs, it won't be hard to get him back up with the Jazz.
Maybe we can see the KOOF get some skill back with some consistent playing time. In the limited action he has seen, he's been next to awful. Man, I was really wrong about him and Fess this year.

Interesting.
What are the Jazz going to do with their empty roster spot? Can’t help but wonder if they pulled this move in order to use that 6.5 million buffer they got for the Maynor/Harpring trade. Probably means Brewer isn’t going anywhere unless they get someone back in return.
I was sick of hearing everyone whine about how the FO was going to be stupid and not sign Gaines. Ya’ll can stop complaining now.

Re: Gaines
doesn’t matter. He won’t play all that much.
Nice to have around, I guess, but he’s probably not going to see much time barring injury.
Free Koufosenko!

Agreed
He was in the right place at the right time during the Cavs game. Big shot. Maybe he’ll amount to being something bigger though. I dunno. I just didn’t understand why everyone was going to cuss out the F.O. if they didn’t sign him. Meh.

the koof's last chance?
if he doesn’t improve remarkably during the stint with the flash, i think the koof won’t be with the jazz past this spring. he seems to have regressed during the past year and a half…and he looked absolutely inept during his 8 minutes last night.
He is only 19 years old. He still has some time to figure it out. Early results aren't encouraging though.
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
true...but if history is any indication
he won’t be around long. he has been less impressive than kris humphries after he left minnesota after one year. didn’t take long for KOC to get sick of kris.
