With the Utah Jazz Summer League beginning on Monday night, business finally looked to be picking up for the Jazz following a period of perceived inactivity. In the final hours remaining before tip-off, the organization also appears to have broken radio silence with its first signing of the summer.

According to reports, the team and restricted free agent Joe Ingles have come to terms on a two-year, $4.5 Million contract.

The 27-year-old Ingles started a surprising 32 games for the Jazz last year following the season-ending injury to guard Alec Burks. He became a key cog in coach Quin Snyder’s rotation, averaging five points, 2.3 assists and 2.2 rebounds per game in 21.2 minutes of play.

“Slow Mo Joe” was an important figure in the Jazz locker room and, along with Trevor Booker, one of the team’s emotional leaders on the floor. He also become a respectable threat from deep late in the season. Following the All-Star Break, Ingles connected on nearly 43 percent of his attempts from three-point range.

While many have opined that the Jazz bench lacked firepower in 2014-15 and is in need of upgrades, Ingles was a glue guy for the squad that contributed to the team’s resurgence on an intangible level. His potential return may not stop the presses, but should do well in helping the Jazz continue their upward swing.

Ever the fan favorite, Ingles’ adoring masses are already taking to Twitter with autograph requests on the eve of his Jazz return–

Ingles can sign the actual contract on July 9 when the league’s moratorium period ends. Congrats to Big Joe on his new deal.

At the very least, fans can expect a veritable bonanza of Twitter craziness from the swingman for the next two years.
