Multiple Reports have the Utah Jazz signing forward Jeremy Evans to a 3 year, $5.5 million deal today. NBA.com's David Aldridge broke the news on Twitter. This is great news for a great guy in Jeremy Evans. It's hard to say what the future of Jeremy Evans will be, but when he's played, he has put up impressive numbers. And I don't know if there is a Jazz fan who doesn't love watching this guy jump all over the court. It's also a tremendous early wedding gift for a guy who plans to be hitched at the end of the summer.

No word yet if Evans will play for the Jazz this next week in the Orlando Summer league. For a story from the sltrib on the news, click here

Sincere congratulations, NBA reigning dunk champion.
