Utah Jazz don't want Kevin Murphy to be a 'pig scorer' in D-League

Burks is only averaging 7.8 minutes an outing after seeing 15.9 minutes a night his rookie season. He's already missed more games due to coach's decision this season (nine) compared to the entire 66-game lockout-shortened campaign (seven).

"He should be frustrated. I'm a little frustrated I haven't had an opportunity to get him on the floor," Corbin said. "He deserves to play, and I've got to find ways to let him get on. It's difficult to get him quality minutes."

With Randy Foye and Gordon Hayward sharing the bulk of the shooting guard time, Burks has been the odd man left out.

"I told the guys before, 'I don’t want to just give you a minute or two just to get you on the floor and pull you out,'" he said. "'I want to be able to give you minutes where you can do something with them.' He's been great about it thus far."
