Average Joe Ingles is anything but for the Utah Jazz
SALT LAKE CITY -- The jokes flood Joe Ingles' Twitter mentions during every game.
The theme is always the Average Joe appearance of the Utah Jazz wing. He's most often called a math or science teacher, which Ingles finds humorous, kidding that poor academic performance was the primary reason he turned pro at 17 in his native Australia. Accountant is also popular, among other pencil-pushing professions.
"Anything that's like a boring, receding-hairline white guy is pretty much what I get," Ingles says.
