The Utah Jazz are reportedly willing to bring veteran point guard John Lucas III back for another season. 

The 31-year-old is owed $1.6 million next season - though the team can release him any time before the season opens without paying him - after signing a two-year deal with the Jazz prior to last season. 

In 42 games last season, Lucas averaged 3.8 points and one assist while playing 14.1 minutes per game.
