Lou Williams to Utah Jazz Hopes Dashed as Lakers Make Deal

Following yesterday’s report that the Utah Jazz had arisen as a team that was targeting Lou Williams in a potential trade, there was quite a bit of buzz and excitement among Jazz fans concerning the possibility. Williams has been an electric scorer this year as he leads the Lakers with 18.6 points per game while shooting 44.4 percent from the field and 38.5 percent from deep.

The thought of utilizing the combo guard’s skills to patch up a weakness at the backup point guard spot and to fortify Utah’s inconsistent shooting guard play was one that had excited several Jazz fans across social media, including myself and others of us here at Purple and Blues.
