The Jazz have invited veteran C Brian Butch to training camp.
Utah already has 15 players under contract, with rookie Kevin Murphy expected to (eventually) take Raja Bell's place on the roster. That unfortunately leaves Butch, who averaged 15.3 points and 9.8 rebounds in the D-League last year, with little chance to make the team.

The Spurs will work out free agent big men Brian Butch and Warren Carter this week.
Butch averaged 15.3 points and 9.8 rebounds in the D-League last year, and is attempting to resume his NBA career after rupturing a patella tendon during Summer League in 2010. Carter, meanwhile, has played in Spain, Greece and Belgium since graduating from college in 2007. Neither player has any fantasy appeal.
