Rodney Purvis to have workout with Utah Jazz

Here's the article.

I think he's just a little bit too short (height and wingspan) to be a 3 and D guy in the NBA, but if you watch his tape on defense senior year at UConn, there is reason to think he can carve out a niche with a strong showing in summer league. He'll make a very nice living playing ball regardless though.

Good luck Rodney!!!

Good luck, Rodney!!!

Go get em Rodney Daggerfield. If Avery Bradley can be a starter on the top team in the Eastern Conference Rodney can stick somewhere.

 

[uconnell]

I love Rodney and I wish him the very best. He is one heck of a person.

 

[UC313]

Get it Rodney!

 

[JSM1970]

Are u kidding. Bradley is 1st team all-D and averaging 16, 6 and 2

He doesn't throw the ball all over the court and make 10+ bad decisions/game

I'd love to see him stick, great kid, but have to play reasonably under control and make shots

Bradley will make $12M+ in his next deal at least

Good luck Rodney! I hope you catch a break.

All the best RP - to a TRUE bleed blue and white husky
I'm in the minority here but I will certainly miss you

While many make fun of you for stepping or having your foot out of bounds but you are in good company - Gordon Heywood did it twice and Rodney Hood once in the current playoff

Looking forward to watching you this summer

 

[UConnNick]

Best of luck to Rodney. He bleeds national flag blue, and will always be a great ambassador for UConn.

 

[Huskybass]

Never saw a more committed Husky. Even during the year he had to sit out. I hope you make a nice living doing what you love, Rodney.

Avery Bradley gets unduly knocked on a regular basis, and what you've said here is true. I don't expect RP to become the next Avery Bradley, but I do believe there's a place for him in the league somewhere.

 

[willie99]

I'm pulling for him as much as I pulled for any Husky, but I think it's going to be hard for him.

Maybe he can find a place with his toughness, maybe a defensive specialist and a spot up shooter, maybe

 

[cordeodato]

I unilaterally love kids that love being a Husky. Best of luck with everything Rodney

 

[Chief00]

Good luck Rodney - We will be pulling for you. Don't step on any lines LOL

Weird comparison.
