Jazz sign G Kevin Murphy.

The terms of the deal have not been disclosed, but it's like just a deal for training camp. Murphy was with the Jazz back in 2012-13 and was traded to the Warriors on July 10, 2013. He'll be fighting for a roster spot.

Kevin Murphy did not practice on Tuesday due to a skin infection.

That does not sound pleasant, but the Jazz are listing him as day-to-day. His last blurb came on January 8 when he was recalled from the D-League, so this news shouldn't impact any fantasy leagues.

Kevin Murphy - G - Jazz

Kevin Murphy has been assigned to the D-League.

"We don't want him to be a pig scorer," GM Dennis Lindsey said. Earl Watson back in action along with the Jazz being banged up may also have something to do with the demotion. Murphy needs minutes and wasn't getting them in Utah.
