West Ranking: 11th

Here are the teams in the West that ESPN has ranked below the Jazz:

Lakers (24), Suns (26), Kings (27), Mavericks (28)

At first glance that seems like some pretty miserable company for a team just one season removed from 51 wins. Given Gobert’s injury and Utah’s December schedule, what other team in the West would you put the Jazz above right now?
