Utah Jazz: It’s time for Naz Mitrou-Long to get an opportunity

Currently, third-string point guard Raul Neto is Utah’s only healthy point guard on the main roster. That says all you need to know about the health of the Utah Jazz’s backcourt. Ricky Rubio injured his hamstring against the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday, Dante Exum is out for multiple weeks due to an ankle injury, and you also have a guy capable of playing point guard in Grayson Allen dealing with an ankle sprain.

While the Jazz will surely play guys like Joe Ingles and Donovan Mitchell in a backup point guard role, as well as their normal starting spots, I think two-way player Naz Mitrou-Long deserves a shot.
