Jazz's Chris Johnson: Chances of making club appear slim

Johnson isn't expected to crack the Jazz's 15-man roster for the start of the regular season, Andy Larsen of KSL.com reports.

Analysis:

After second-round draft pick Joel Bolomboy was officially signed earlier this weekend, the Jazz now have 17 players under contract heading into training camp. Since the Jazz are particularly deep at the small forward spot after adding Joe Johnson to the ranks earlier this offseason, Chris Johnson, a minor role player last season, appears most at risk of missing out on a roster berth. Unless Johnson has an outstanding training camp, it's unlikely the Jazz will be anxious to clear room for him after he shot just 37.1 percent from the field across his 70 appearances in 2015-16.
