The Jazz want a longer look at Cotton and signed him to another 10 day. Great news!

According to a report by Sportando, the Utah Jazz have elected to continue their relationship with diminutive playmaker Bryce Cotton. Cotton, who was called up by the Jazz from the D-League’s Austin Spurs on February 24th, has apparently received a second 10-day contract with the club.
The Cotton signing would be the second one of its kind in as many days; the team inked Idaho Stampede forward Jerrelle Benimon to a 10-day contract yesterday. With the retaining of Cotton and the acquisition of Benimon, one can’t help but wonder what the future holds for Jack Cooley, whose contract with the Jazz expired today.
Meanwhile, the six-foot-one, 165-pound Cotton saw seven minutes of game action in Utah’s blowout victory over the Denver Nuggets. He finished with three points, connecting on an attempt from long distance, as well as two rebounds, one assist and one steal.
With Jazz guard Ian Clark assigned to the Idaho Stampede, Jazz coaches and general manager Dennis Lindsey were afforded the chance to take a harder look at Cotton. The high-scoring guard has been on their radar for awhile now, dating back at least as far as pre-draft workouts this past summer. Now it appears as though Jazz brass will have more time to evaluate his progress.
