    Utah Jazz Senior Vice President of Basketball Operations Kevin O'Connor announced today that 7-0 center Paul Grant has been signed to a contract. He is expected to join the team for the game in Memphis on Friday night.

    Hopefully he can make up for Ben Handlogten's loss. But it would be better if Tag and the other big men could get healthy quick.

    Not sure, I went to ESPN.com to try to find out though and found something that gave me a good laugh. Did you know that Paul Grant looks exactly like Glen Rice? Apparently ESPN wasn't prepared for his return....check it out, it's pretty funny. :P http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/players/profile?statsId=3190
