Ross Siler, Salt Lake Tribune: "He's only 22, but Kyrylo Fesenko's time in Utah has been characterized by ups and downs. He showed up with blond hair to the Rocky Mountain Revue last July and struggled on the court in the summer league. He found structure off the court with the help of Russ and Terri Ridge, who started out as Fesenko's drivers but stepped in almost as surrogate parents. Fesenko had a handful of impressive games, including a 12-point, 11-rebound effort against Houston on Dec. 27. According to a league source, though, Fesenko's exit interview with the Jazz did not go well. He apparently was asked by general manager Kevin O'Connor and Jerry Sloan to explain some of the updates on his Facebook page. There are those more Facebook savvy than myself, but one of the posts in question concerned being happy to be in Los Angeles during the playoffs because it was such a good city in which to go out. At the same time, there's no disputing that Fesenko is a better player now than when he first arrived in Utah. We'll see in the coming week whether that progress has been enough for the Jazz to be encouraged to bring back Fesenko."
I added Fesenko as my friend.
