The Utah Jazz may continuously disappoint during the postseason, but it shouldn't be the case that we forget how good they will be this upcoming season.

Let's check out a circle graph of the total points scored by the top-7 scorers for the Jazz last season.
As you can see, the scoring extremely is balanced. The second and third-highest total point-getters (Jordan Clarkson and Bojan Bogdanović) are super close and are not too far from star Donovan Mitchell -- although he did miss 19 regular-season games.
For this upcoming season, the Jazz has all these players back and should expect a similar output from them. The oldest players of this core seven are Joe Ingles and Mike Conley who are both 34 and even if both regresses some, a subtle improvement from Donovan Mitchell more than makes up for it alongside the other scorers who are still in their respective primes.
Additionally, my bold prediction is that the Jazz made an excellent second-round selection in this past draft. Jared Butler from Baylor University will contribute at some point for this team and will fit as a role player whenever he gets the opportunity. You heard it here first.
