Arroyo is excited to learn from Stockton
9/14

The point guard handed off compliments to the Utah Jazz, Salt Lake
City, Karl Malone and John Stockton in his introduction to the local

an estimated $475,000. |

Jazz Look
to Sign Lopez Before Surgery
9/12
After hearing relatively good news about Raul Lopez's injured knee, the
Utah Jazz say they are working to sign the team's first-round pick
from last year.
Lopez, 22, tore ligaments in his knee while playing for the Spanish
national team in August.
The evaluations on Lopez, Utah's prospective point guard of the
future, were completed Friday by doctors at the University of Utah.
They said the injury can be repaired and function restored.
According to the evaluations, Lopez suffered a lateral meniscal tear
and a tear of the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. |
Arroyo
Agrees to Join Utah
9/11
Carlos Arroyo's best performance in Utah came nearly two
years ago in Provo, when he scored 14 points in the Marriott Center
against Brigham Young.
He will get plenty of chances to better that now.
Arroyo will take his game to the Delta Center this season as a
member of the Jazz. The Florida International graduate agreed
Tuesday to a free-agent contract with the team, becoming for the
moment the only backup point guard to John Stockton. |
Arroyo signing likely; Lopez still a mystery

past week or so — that they're not ready to make any announcement
about his medical situation or basketball future.
Lopez, the first-round draft pick from Spain who was expected to be
veteran point guard John Stockton's principal backup this season,
suffered an ACL tear in an exhibition game last month. |
