Rudy Gobert is the best player for the Utah Jazz. Since his return from injury, the All-NBA center has averaged 15 points and 11 rebounds per game, to go along with 2.5 blocked shots. The Jazz are 14-2 in their last 16 games, largely on Gobert’s back, and they are outscoring opponents by 10 points per game.
Donovan Mitchell, along with Philadelphia’s Ben Simmons, is a front-runner for the NBA’s Rookie of the Year. The shooting guard is smooth and explosive. He will likely finish the season averaging 20 points per game. He’s Utah’s best offensive option, and he’s already one of the best fourth-quarter scorers in the league.
