BREAKING: Utah Jazz are in final stage discussion to sign 24-year-old

The Jazz are reportedly set to sign forward to an Exhibit 10 contract for training camp, according to Tony Jones of The Athletic.

At 24 years old and standing 6-foot-7, Justice played last season with the Salt Lake City Stars in the G League, where he averaged 8.8 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.4 assists over 31 games. He also hit 39% of his three-point attempts, making him an appealing option for Utah.

However, there’s a possibility that Justice might return to the Stars to start the season.

 

Report: Utah Jazz Sign Keshawn Justice to Training Camp Deal

 

An Exhibit 10 contract is a non-guaranteed minimum-salary agreement that doesn’t count against a team’s salary cap unless the player makes the final roster. It can also be converted to a two-way deal before the season starts or provide guaranteed money if the player is waived and remains with the G League team for at least 60 days.

The Jazz currently have 20 players on their camp roster, so if they sign Justice—who went undrafted from Santa Clara in 2023—they won’t need to make any additional moves, as the league limit is 21. Justice joined Utah for the summer league and signed an Exhibit 10 contract in October 2023, although he was waived just a week later.

He holds the Santa Clara school record for the most games played, with 144 appearances (105 starts), and ranks third all-time in three-pointers made, with 305.
