Jazz's stance on John Tonje just became crystal clear after Georges Niang trade

It has raised some eyebrows that since the Utah Jazz drafted John Tonje, he has remained unsigned throughout the offseason. However, following the Jazz's latest move - re-acquiring Georges Niang - the Jazz have also indirectly confirmed what the future holds for Tonje: he'll be a Jazzman soon enough.

For anyone who doesn't know about the details of the trade, the Jazz got Niang back along with two second-round picks, while trading RJ Luis Jr. While those details may sound irrelevant in the grand scheme of things, Luis was on a two-way contract, which opens one up for Tonje.
