15. Utah Jazz

Since it was reported that Bojan Bogdanovic would be missing the remainder of the season due to injury, many were quick to count out the Utah Jazz as a team that could potentially make a deep playoff run. Simply put, as soon as they emerged in the restart, their play would prove those people right.

Since the restart, the Jazz has looked like anything but a contender. The Jazz has the 18th ranked offense and the 10th ranked defense. They’re an average team right now, simply put. That isn’t great considering this is a team that has Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert leading the way.

The Jazz might be headed for another disappointing finish this season and it will complicate this team’s future. They have a big decision to make on Gobert’s future soon and then will have to deal with extending Mitchell.

What does the future hold for the Jazz?
