The Utah Jazz are reportedly interested in Los Angeles Lakers bench gunner Lou Williams, sources told Tony Jones of the Salt Lake Tribune.
Williams is a coveted piece for contenders looking to add a scoring punch before Thursday's trade deadline. He is averaging a career-best 18.6 points and 3.2 assists while shooting 38.6 percent for the Lakers this season.
The Jazz will need to outbid other teams for the 2014-15 Sixth Man of the Year. Newly hired Lakers president Magic Johnson admitted that he has received plenty of calls for Williams since taking over hours ago.
