Omer Yurtseven hopes for a rebound season with the Utah Jazz

The Utah Jazz signed Omer Yurtseven this offseason, with the hope of giving Walker Kessler some support in the size department. Getting Yurtseven, a promising, young big, also allows the Jazz to explore trades involving Kelly Olynyk. Olynyk, who’s in the last year of his contract, could be dealt in a deal that could see the Jazz get back some assets worth investing in. Young players, draft picks, who knows?

But that potential deal can only truly happen if Yurtseven is fully healthy. The Jazz have a lot of tall players, but they lack a lot of genuine center-types.
