The Utah Jazz have played 16 games. They are 12-4 and currently tied for the second best record in the league. They have the fourth best net rating, or second best when you filter out garbage time. Basically, they’re in a groove.

MVP

When this season started, the only players in contention for team MVP were Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell. Rudy has held this title for quite a while, but after Donovan’s unbelievable playoff series, he looked poised to make a run for Rudy’s throne. Taking this into account, it may come as a surprise that neither of those two are leading the race so far.
