Utah Jazz: 3 reasons why the Jazz must win a championship this season

Why the Utah Jazz needs to win an NBA Championship this season. 

A year ago, it seemed as if the stars were aligning for an NBA Finals run for the Utah Jazz. Then, injuries fell upon this team and an earlier-than-expected playoff exit is what their season was ultimately defined by.

Heading into this season, there were already many that were quick to doubt the Jazz as a contender in the Western Conference. Through the first month of the season, though, Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert, and the rest of this team have done a great job in changing that narrative.

The Jazz has proven thus far this season that they’re going to be a contender in the West and that they have as good of a shot as any other team in the conference to win the championship.

As the rest of the conference continues to fight for hierarchy, we explore three reasons why if the Jazz is going to win a championship with this core, it may have to come this season.
