Utah Jazz position analysis and video: The big men

After taking a look at the point guards and the wings, the third and final installment of our Utah Jazz position previews for the 2016-17 season will be focused on the big men.

Season in review

The Jazz continued to build their identity around defense during the 2015-16 campaign, thanks in large part to Derrick Favors and Rudy Gobert. The two combined to average 19.1 rebounds and 3.7 blocks per game and added a combined 25.5 points per contest on the offensive end.

Both were limited by injuries, however, as Gobert missed 21 games and Favors 20.
