If there was ever a time for the Utah Jazz to really turn up their level of play, now would be that time. With just nine games left in the regular season and as Utah holds just a one-game lead over the LA Clippers for fourth place in the West, the Jazz desperately need to close out the season strong.
They’ve lost four of their last five, have played with such a lack of energy in recent contests that Rudy Gobert called out his teammates and just so happen to have the hardest remaining schedule of any team in the league.
