Twitter reacts to Johnny Juzang contract extension

It was a great week for former UCLA star Johnny Juzang. The guard agreed to a $12M deal for four years to return to the Utah Jazz. This came after playing back-to-back two-way deals. Juzang was not drafted after his time at UCLA.

Last season as a rookie, Juzang scored 7.2 points per game. He played in 20 games. The previous season he scored just shy of 5 points per game, and played in 18 games. The Utah Jazz are in the middle of a rebuild, but they are hoping Juzang is a guy that can help them out now, and also long term.

Twitter reacted to the signing, and here are some of our favorites:

This is good business. Juzang is 6'7 and still 23, and hit 42% of his 3s last year. Not a stopper at all, but big enough to defend multiple spots. Real chance he's a bargain bench guy by the end of this deal. https://t.co/N8TSuCknma
