Kyle Weaver's 10-day stay with Jazz comes to a close

Kyle Weaver's stay with the Utah Jazz and return to the NBA proved to be short-lived.

The Jazz decided not to re-sign the versatile 6-foot-6 combo guard after his initial 10-day contract expired Saturday, as was first reported online by the Deseret News on Sunday.

"It just didn't work out," Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin said.

Weaver's call-up from the D-League was necessary a week and a half ago when the Jazz were down to one point guard because of injuries to Devin Harris and Ronnie Price.

But Harris has since returned from his hamstring injury, making Weaver expendable for the Jazz with only four days and two games remaining in the 2010-11 season.

"With Devin back, his time was going to be cut way down if he even got in the game. It wasn't worth having him here now," Corbin said. "We just decided it wasn't the right thing to do for us."

Corbin said he could see Weaver earning a fall camp invitation with the Jazz (if the league isn't experiencing a lockout, of course).

"He's done a great job," Corbin said. "I think as he get in and get relaxed, he's a guy that could play a couple of different positions for us and give us some toughness."
