The most recent Utah Jazz contest against the Phoenix Suns wasn’t exactly beautiful basketball. There were injuries on both sides, including Suns star Devin Booker going down with an ankle injury that will keep him sidelined for the remainder of the season.
Nevertheless, Utah still got the W which is the most important thing. And while the injuries resulted in a worrisome lack of depth, they also gave less experienced Jazz players the chance to step up. The prime example of such an opportunity was the one provided to Jazz rookie Grayson Allen.
Allen’s rookie season has been far from spectacular.
