    For a young veteran looking for a new beginning with a new team, Raja Bell found the perfect way to end Saturday night's first home preseason Utah Jazz game.
    Far from being the first option on an inbounds play with one second left and the Jazz trailing Seattle by a point, Bell set a pick for teammate Sasha Pavlovic and then found a soft spot in the Sonics' zone. Inbounder Matt Harpring hit Bell after it looked like Andrei Kirilenko and Pavlovic were covered, and Bell floated the ball over an oncoming Reggie Evans.



    It looks like Raja is enjoying his time in Utah, something that is really rare amongst NBA players today, he's probably having no regrets now. Hopefully that can lure bigger Free Agents since Utah has the most cap space out of any team(says in the article).
    Raja has not been known for his clutch play so don't expect him to be the Jazz's version of Robert Horry, it would be nice if he was though. For now AK47 or Matt Harpring are the clutch guys and they have proven it last season.
