Jarrell Brantley

One collector is trying to find a single signature from every man who ever played for the Jazz — all 370 of them, from the 1974 New Orleans team to today. For many of them, this page is the only one on the internet. Here is Jarrell Brantley: what he did on the floor, a few things most people never knew, and every card that carries his name. If you own something he signed — or you know who might — there is a note at the foot of this page.

Raised in Columbia, he stayed in South Carolina for college and left the College of Charleston with 1,914 points, third in program history. Drafted 50th in 2019 and dealt to Utah, Brantley split two seasons between the Jazz and the Salt Lake City Stars on a two-way contract, then came back in 2023 for four more games on a 10-day deal.

His travels since tell a modern journeyman's story: he walked away from UNICS Kazan over the 2022 invasion of Ukraine and was reportedly sued for $250,000 for it, then teamed with his brother Jamaal on the New Zealand Breakers — the NBL's first pair of import brothers — before settling in Japan with Nagasaki Velca.

HOW HE CAME & WENTIndiana took him 50th overall in 2019 and traded him to Utah that night. The Jazz waived him at his own request in September 2021 and brought him back on a 10-day contract in March 2023.
