Utah Jazz vs Washington Wizards Overtone: Once upon a point guard
If I had a nickle for every time Utah’s point guard woes were mentioned between 2010 and 2016, I’d have approximately $1,635,987.55 (but that’s just a ballpark number).
The Jazz went from having one of the best point guards since the turn of the century to point guard purgatory in 2010. And it has taken them about seven years to bring in a capable starter.
That wasn’t how it was supposed to go though. After cycling through guys like Devin Harris, Mo Williams and Jamaal Tinsley for three years, newly christened GM Dennis Lindsey acquired Michigan point guard Trey Burke in 2013.
