Former Syracuse forward James Southerland, who went undrafted in 2013, will play for the Utah Jazz in the 2017 NBA Summer League.
Southerland is one of nine former Syracuse players on a Summer League roster this year. The 6-foot-8 forward joins Tyler Roberson, Tyler Lydon, Rakeem Christmas, Tyler Cavanaugh, Michael Gbinije, Chris McCullough, Malachi Richardson and Kris Joseph.
This past season, Southerland played on the Santa Cruz Warriors in the G-League. He averaged 13.7 points and 6.2 rebounds per game while shooting 46.5 percent from the field and 39.2 percent from 3.
After the 2013 Final Four run with SU, Southerland has struggled to find himself a consistent role.
