Raul Lopez is coming to Utah. The Utah Jazz draftee was scheduled to arrive in Utah Wednesday and undergo a medical evaluation at the University of Utah sometime Thursday, according to a team spokesman. Lopez, a point guard from Spain, suffered a torn ligament in his surgically repaired right knee last month while playing in an exhibition game with the Spanish national team. Since then, the Jazz and Lopez's agents have been involved in discussions regarding his medical care and contract status — he had not yet signed a contract when the injury occurred.
