Mo, Sasha and Mo

A quick offseason Jazz item of interest here:
When LeBron James hit the 3-pointer heard around Cleveland (and many other NBA parts) on Friday night, two former Jazz players also were on the Quicken Loans Arena floor for the Cavaliers.
The pair amounts to the Jazz’s entire 2003 draft class. And both were allowed to leave Utah for nothing.
One was starting point guard and NBA All-Star Mo Williams, a second-round pick who was allowed to leave for Milwaukee after one season in Utah – and who made the pass to James for his playoff game-winner at the buzzer.
The other was reserve swingman Sasha Pavlovic, a first-round pick who was left exposed in the 2004 NBA Expansion Draft – and taken by Charlotte before being traded to Cleveland the next day.
Just wondering:
Where will 2007 first-round pick Mo Almond – who won’t be re-signed this offseason – be in 2014, five years after being allowed to leave Utah for, uh, nothing?
