SALT LAKE CITY -- No. 5 overall pick Ace Bailey's debut in a Utah Jazz uniform featured more dirty work than flashes of his scoring potential, which wasn't necessarily a disappointment to his new coaches.
Bailey finished with eight points on 3-of-13 shooting in the Jazz's 93-89 win over the Philadelphia 76ers in Saturday's Salt Lake City Summer League opener. He was outshined by Sixers rookie VJ Edgecombe, the No. 3 overall pick who had 28 points, 10 rebounds and four assists while going 13-of-27 from the floor.
However, with the game on the line, Edgecombe missed a 3-pointer that would have tied the score.
