The Downbeat - 27 October 2009 - #87 - The Downbeat of the Season Edition
SLC Dunk — ...   An official SLC Dunk welcome to Wes Matthews.  Even though he'll wear #23, he will hopefully become more than a fan favorite and stick with the team for a while. ...

Waive Goodbye, Part 2
Ridiculous Upside — ... full up.  He's a solid candidate for a mid-season replacement in case some small forward somewhere gets hurt.  He can shoot the three a bit, his rebounding has improved the past few years and he doesn't turn the ball over much. What, you want me to talk about Jarron Collins? Utah Jazz Who got cut: Ronald Dupree, Alexander Johnson, Paul Harris, Spencer Nelson Who got kept: No one. Wes Matthews and draft pick Goran Suton aren't really included in this, ...

Wes Matthew Player Preview
SLC Dunk — I couldn't even find a picture of Wes Matthews as a Jazzman   If you google Wes Matthews Jr you wont find very much.  He grew up in Madison, Wisconsin and was Mr Basketball of the state his senior year in high school.  And he was part of the three guard rotation used at Marquette University along with Dominic James and Jerel McNeal.  I have heard about those other two guys, but until about a month ago, I had never heard of Wes Matthews in my life.  And that ...

Game Thread and Preview - Utah Jazz @ Philadelphia 76ers
SLC Dunk — ... As you're well aware by now, the Jazz will be without Deron Williams tonight (personal reasons) as well as Ronnie Price (big toe). Sloan has chosen to bring AK off the bench for tonight's action so as to have a second ball handler on the court for the second team. That means that rookie Wes Matthews will start alongside fellow rookie Eric Maynor.  Yes, those two that must carry around pink backpacks at all times this season. Maynor will get to show what he can do with significant minutes and while ...
