Less than two minutes after subbing in, Jonas Jerebko had his first shot as a Jazzman: an open 3-pointer off a pass from Joe Ingles.
As he ran back on defense, he swung at Thabo Sefolosha’s high-five with a little too much enthusiasm.
Jerebko was all smiles on Wednesday after playing his first significant minutes with the Jazz in a 112-103 win over the Trail Blazers. Getting the nod in place of injured Joe Johnson (wrist), the 30-year-old forward had 8 points, 7 rebounds and the satisfaction of having found a way to contribute after coming aboard this summer.
