Utah Jazz Player Analysis: Keyonte George has been awesome this preseason

I love Keyonte George and I don’t care who knows it.

The shifty scoring guard from Baylor had a strong rookie campaign with the Utah Jazz after Danny Ainge and Co. stole him with the 16th pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, and early returns on George have been very promising.

For a Jazz team stuck in the swirling undertow of a from-the-ground rebuild, Keyonte’s development has been an undeniable success that Will Hardy will look to use to his advantage as Utah is still soul-searching for any semblance of identity.

With George seeing plenty of floor time between his Summer League and preseason runs, many fans are highly encouraged by the deliberate improvement across many aspects of his game.
