NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis
Jazz: What a start!
The Jazz were slated to be a lottery team but they have showcased immense amount of promise. They lack an All-Star but that also means that the ball is moving well and there is no single enforcer. Getting Lauri Markkanen has given depth to the frontline whereas the guard depth is deep with Clarkson, Conley, Sexton, and Beasley. The team’s three-point shooting looks improved while including Jarred Vanderbilt and Kelly Olynyk has been a great decision. The trajectory of the season will depend upon how consistent the team is and how they respond on defense.
Grizzlies: They are deep
The Grizzlies are blessed with a bonafide All-Star Ja Morant while Desmond Bane is emerging as an All-Star level scorer, having one of the best long-range shots in the world. Dillon Brooks is a solid wing whose offense is a bit inconsistent but he can get it done. The bench is deep with a starting-level Point Guard Tyus Jones, a strong slasher Brandon Clarke whereas Steven Adams provides strong rebounding. Santi Aldama has filled in well for defensive enforcer Jaren Jackson Jr. whereas John Konchar is a strong rebounder off-the-bench.
