There Are Far Worse Things to Have Than a Lottery Pick

The Jazz’s lack of depth was a season-long thorn in their side. The Jazz simply didn’t have the talent to compete with the NBA’s upper-echelon teams.

Jazz GM Dennis Lindsey has his work cut out for him. But if there’s one thing he’s proven, it’s that he knows how to draft. With a track record of draft day steals like Rudy Gobert and Rodney Hood, and surprises like Trey Lyles, we should trust that DL knows what he’s doing.
