The Jazz have waived guard Trevon Bluiett and three undrafted rookies — center Romaro Gill, forward Tre Scott and guard Jake Toolson — according to a team press release.

Utah needed to make room on its 20-man roster for two new additions, guard Yogi Ferrell and forward Malcolm Miller.

Some or all of the players let go on Friday could wind up with the Jazz’s G League club in Salt Lake City if they clear waivers.

Bluiett appeared in 41 games with the Salt Lake City Stars last season, averaging 14.9 PPG, 3.4 RPG and 2.5 APG in 29.3 MPG.

Gill, an undrafted rookie out of Seton Hall, posted averages of 7.8 PPG, 5.6 RPG and 3.2 BPG in 30 games last season.

Scott was a four-year player at Cincinnati and averaged 11.4 PPG and 10.5 RPG in 33.7 MPG for the Bearcats last season.

Toolson spent two seasons at BYU before transferring to Utah Valley and then back to BYU last season. He averaged 15.2 PPG, 4.8 RPG and 3.9 APG as a senior.

NOVEMBER 30, 6:18pm: The signing is official, according to a team press release.

NOVEMBER 19, 1:24pm: Seton Hall center Romaro Gill will sign an Exhibit 10 contract with the Jazz, Adam Zagoria writes for NJ.com.

The 7’2″ Gill opted for Utah after receiving several offers, according to his agent, Steve McCaskill. Gill will attend training camp with the Jazz and will receive a guarantee of up to $50K if he is waived and winds up with the team’s G League affiliate.

Gill, 26, was named Big East Defensive Player of the Year and Most Improved Player in the conference last season. He averaged 7.8 points, 5.6 rebounds and 3.2 blocks in his second year with the Pirates. Gill tells Zagoria he has been working to improve his mid-range game since the season ended.
