It happened. The Utah Jazz moved up in the NBA Draft Lottery.

From Pina’s article: The Rockets thought that KD was their missing piece, and instead, there’s a chance they’ll turn him into a stepping stone this summer. It turns […]
For nine seasons, I defended all of Rudy Gobert’s flaws. His poor dribbling, his horrendous shooting, how goofy he looks when he defends one-on-one outside the paint. Even with all Gobert’s quirks, I knew how valuable he was to the Jazz for a near-decade. Once he was traded out of Utah, it was a nice […]

After an exhausting, long NBA season, it was nice to go about Sunday’s game stress-free. There were some stakes involved as the Lakers could still finish either the third or fourth seed.
