Utah Jazz notebook: Jerry Sloan more worried about finishes than starts

Williams said he got to play his favorite offseason sport Sunday and was happy to report he shot an 86.

Obviously he didn't play in Utah, where the high Sunday was about 20 with snow on the ground.

Rather, Williams stayed in Texas an extra day after the game at Houtson and fit in 18 holes, while most of the rest of the team came back to frigid Utah.

MISC: The Jazz will be paying all 13 players for the rest of the season after Monday's NBA deadline for non-guaranteed players came and went. The only player on the Jazz roster with a non-guaranteed contract is rookie Jeremy Evans and the Jazz confirmed he's not going anywhere ... Sloan saw the report of the possible blockbuster three-team trade involving Carmelo Anthony and Denver, one of his team's division rivals. "I've got more to worry about with this team than to worry about Denver," he said. "They know their business better than I do. I try not to get in the business part of it." ... While the Jazz have had three days off, their Wednesday opponent, New York, plays in Portland Tuesday night after losing to the Lakers in Los Angeles Sunday night.
