Micah Potter News, Rumors, Updates - Utah Jazz | FOX Sports

Inks contract with Utah The Jazz signed Potter to a two-way deal Saturday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

Impact Potter will return to Utah for a third consecutive season on a two-way pact. The 26-year-old averaged a career-high 11.6 minutes in a career-high 16 regular-season appearances last season, during which he averaged 3.3 points and 2.7 rebounds while shooting 42.9 percent from beyond the arc. Potter will likely spend most of his time with Utah's G League affiliate, the Salt Lake City Stars, as he is buried behind a fairly deep frontcourt consisting of Walker Kessler, John Collins, Drew Eubanks, Taylor Hendricks and Kyle Filipowski.

Logs eight points form bench Potter finished Sunday's 127-106 loss to the Kings with eight points (3-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt), four rebounds, one block and one steal in 20 minutes.

Impact The two-way player saw his minutes jump again off the bench, which is an important step toward viability for the team after wallowing in the G League for most of his pro career. The 6-10 Wisconsin product's contract expires in 2024, so he'll try to prove his worth with the team as the season comes to a close.

Called up by Utah Potter was recalled from the G League's Salt Lake City Stars on Wednesday.

Impact The Jazz will be shorthanded in the frontcourt Wednesday with John Collins (illness) sidelined, so Potter will provide additional depth off the bench. Potter averaged 3.4 points and 2.3 rebounds in 7.4 minutes per game over seven appearances with the Jazz last year but has yet to make his season debut for the parent club this year.

Headed back to G League The Jazz transferred Potter to the Salt Lake City Stars of the G League on Wednesday, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.

Impact Potter hasn't played for Utah in the NBA since Dec. 20. The two-way big man should receive extended opportunities in the G League.

Back with NBA club Potter has been elevated from the G League's Salt Lake City Stars and will be available for Tuesday's matchup against the Mavericks.

Impact Potter hasn't appeared in an NBA contest since Dec. 20 and has made only three appearances all season. However, he is back with the parent club Tuesday and will serve as an emergency depth option with Walker Kessler (illness) questionable.

Impact One of Utah's two two-way players, Potter made his first appearance for either the G League or NBA squad since Jan. 21 after a month-long recovery from surgery to address loose bodies in his right elbow. As his huge minutes total suggests, Potter didn't seem to be limited from a conditioning standpoint. The second-year center is expected to see most of his opportunities in the G League moving forward now that he's healthy again.

Impact Potter is unlikely to factor into head coach Will Hardy's rotation Tuesday, but he'll provide the Jazz with some depth in the frontcourt while Utah is without two other big men in Kelly Olynyk (ankle) and Udoka Azubuike (COVID-19 health and safety protocols).

Makes rare appearance for NBA team Potter played three minutes and recorded one assist and no other statistics in Tuesday's 126-111 win over the Pistons.

Impact With Kelly Olynyk (ankle) inactive for both ends of the Jazz's back-to-back set to begin the week, Utah recalled Potter from the G League's Salt Lake City Stars to provide added depth in the frontcourt. Though Potter's number wasn't called in Monday's 23-point loss to the Cavaliers, he got some garbage-time run Tuesday when the Jazz were on the right side of a blowout. Look for Potter to rejoin the Stars in the near future if Olynyk's injury doesn't prove to be a long-term concern.

DECEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Signs two-way deal with Jazz Potter and the Jazz agreed to a two-way contract on Tuesday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Impact Potter joins Cody Zeller as frontcourt depth for the Jazz after trading away Rudy Gobert. Potter played in three games for the Pistons in 2021 and averaged 4.0 points and 3.0 rebounds in 10.3 minutes. The Wisconsin big man will have to split time between the NBA and the G League but could see solid playing time considering the Jazz's lack of depth at center.

SEPTEMBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Waived by Pistons The Pistons have waived Potter from his Exhibit 10 contract, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

Impact Potter played in three games for the Pistons in 2021 and averaged 4.0 points and 3.0 rebounds in 10.3 minutes. Although the big man just inked a deal with the Pistons in late August, he didn't stick around with the club very long. Instead, the move will likely send Potter to the team's G League affiliate.
