With only six games remaining in the regular season, it’s time to check in with the four rookies on the Utah Jazz.
Walker Kessler
Walker Kessler is the headliner here. Picked 22nd to the Minnesota Timberwolves and traded to Utah in the Rudy Gobert blockbuster, Kessler forced his way into the starting lineup early in the season. From his first minutes in the league, it was clear that he was a real talent. Since then, he climbed his way to competing for the Rookie of the Year award and should even receive some votes for the All-NBA Defensive team.
