Utah Jazz Alumni: Checking in on fan favorite Ekpe Udoh

Ekpe Udoh has had immense overseas success throughout his career. He was something of a cult hero in Turkey prior to signing with the Utah Jazz over two years ago. He helped Fenerbahçe win the EuroLeague title in 2017.

After that run, Udoh signed a two-year deal with Utah. He spent those two years as a backup center, always being ready when called upon. Some of his brightest moments with the Jazz include moments where he had to fill in for the All-Star Rudy Gobert back in 2017.

For instance, he had a 9-point, 7-rebound, 3-assist and 6-block performance against the Cavaliers in Cleveland on December 16th.
