The key to success for the Utah Jazz next season will be individual improvement across their roster. As such, each player ought to focus in on these specific goals.
The 2017-18 Utah Jazz season was an overwhelming success in nearly every single way. Not only did the Jazz out-perform expectations heading into the season, but they managed to turn what looked like a lost season at about the midway point into one of the best years in recent memory.
The cohesion and chemistry were so good, in fact, that Dennis Lindsey and the rest of Jazz brass have for the most part decided to keep the squad together by re-signing Derrick Favors, Dante Exum and Raul Neto. The team ended the year so well last season and, for the most part, the entire roster has room to further improve.
