Collin Sexton is just one of the many new players coming to the Utah Jazz.
During the summer, the Jazz made some huge moves in order for other teams to acquire Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell.
All of this radically transformed the Utah roster and brought in some fresh, young (and sometimes untested) talent, like Sexton.
Sexton hasn’t played basketball in some time due to injury but he is ready to play his heart out once again.
Collin Sexton: the toughest part of being injured last year was being away from the game. I’m excited to be back and be back with my teammates and to get this thing rolling.

Speaking of his previous season, Sexton opened up saying that the toughest part of being hurt last year was that he wasn’t able to play the game he loves so much.
Sexton added that he’s excited to be back with his new teammates and is ready to “get this thing rolling.”
Luckily for the Jazz, this young guard has a lot to offer and could become the centerpiece of the team.
Colling Is Balling Again
The Jazz really are lucky to get Sexton.
He was no longer wanted by the Cleveland Cavaliers but it’s not that he’s a bad player – far from it, in fact.
His career average right now is 20 points, 3 rebounds, and 3.3 assists.
He has a 45.8% field goal percentage and can go 37.8% from the three-point line.
But he no longer fit with the Cleveland lineup so they were willing to part ways with him, especially for someone like Mitchell.
Sexton hasn’t been able to hit the court in months so it might take him some time to get back in the rhythm of things and perform as he once did.
But the Jazz aren’t expecting to win many games this year so Sexton can take as much time as he needs.
When he’s back up and running at 100%, he could show Jazz fans why he might have been a steal.
