Trey Lyles

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 Trey Lyles: what he did on the floor, a few things most people never knew, and every card that carries his name. If you have a better example of his signature, or a story about it, the note at the foot of this page still stands.

Born in Saskatoon to an American father and Canadian mother, Lyles moved to Indianapolis at seven and left high school as Indiana Mr. Basketball. After a Final Four freshman year at Kentucky, the Jazz drafted him 12th overall in 2015. He played two seasons in Utah and made the 2016 Rising Stars Challenge before becoming the answer to a trivia question — traded in 2017 in the deal that brought Utah the rights to Donovan Mitchell.

Lyles has kept working ever since: Denver, San Antonio, Detroit, three years in Sacramento, then Real Madrid, where he scored 24 points in the 2026 EuroLeague final. He signed with Minnesota in July 2026.

HOW HE CAME & WENTUtah took him 12th overall in 2015. On draft night 2017 the Jazz sent him and the rights to Tyler Lydon, the 24th pick, to Denver to move up to 13 and take Donovan Mitchell.
