"The Utah Jazz had a crowded court for practice Thursday.

Not only did Jamaal Tinsley return from dealing with a family matter in New York, but the 14-deep Jazz also welcomed newly acquired DeMarre Carroll into the fold.

Carroll, a third-year small forward from Missouri, was signed for the rest of the season after being waived by the Denver Nuggets earlier this week.

Carroll might not be a shooter like many outsiders thought the Jazz might pick up, but Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin believes he'll help Utah with his skill set and mindset.

"He's a good, young hustle player that found his way into this league," Corbin said. "He had a great college career ... really works hard, a hustle guy that will bust his butt every minute that he's on the floor."

Carroll, who'll wear No. 3, believed his offseason improvement and his willingness to do dirty work helped him find a fourth NBA home after being drafted by Memphis, then playing short stints with Houston and Denver."
