On Dec. 22, Mitrou-Long signed a two-way deal with the Jazz after playing in their G-League, the Salt Lake City Stars, for 20 games.
During his time with the Jazz, Mitrou-Long played in one game for 31 seconds and connected on one 3-pointer against the Denver Nuggets on Dec. 26.
The Jazz may try to bring Mitrou-Long back as a player on the Salt Lake City Stars once again.
