E.J. Singler, native Oregonian and former Duck basketball star, has been signed by the Utah Jazz, the team announced Wednesday afternoon. Per team policy, financial terms have not been released.
The 6-foot-6 guard played four years at Oregon, capping things off his senior year by averaging 11.7 points, 4.9 rebounds and 2.8 assists.
Singler spent last season abroad with BC Kalev/Cramo in Estonia, where he averaged 6.9 points and 3.9 rebounds per game. He appeared in 60 games, while receiving the nod to start in 19.
The signing brings the total number of players on the Jazz roster to 16, one over the maximum. This likely means Singler will be moved to the NBA Development League. There he would play for the Utah affiliate, the Idaho Stampede, a team he played with during the 2013-14 season when it was associated with the Trail Blazers.
Singler’s older brother, Kyle, is currently a member of the Oklahoma City Thunder.
