It was obvious on Thursday, though, that the 27-year-old Booker would like to stay in Utah next season.

“Of course I want to be back. I got the sense that they want me back, so I feel it’s mutual,” he said. “But, you know, at the end of the day, it’s still always a business, so we’ll see.

“… We had great (team) chemistry. Definitely, the chemistry was great, just to play with the guys, the way we competed. You know, I’m a big competitor, so I want to be out there with guys who compete. And those guys definitely competed and gave it their all every game, and I would love to play with them again.

“The Jazz organization, they do a good job. It’s very family oriented, they do a lot of stuff for the fans. I mean, it’s just great,” Booker said. “Washington was a great experience, but I definitely enjoyed my time here in Utah a little more (than his previous four years in Washington with the Wizards).”
