Utah Jazz head coach Quin Snyder moves to a huddle during a time out in the game against the Boston Celtics at Vivint Smart Home Arena in Salt Lake City on Wednesday, March 28, 2018.

LOS ANGELES — Campaigns for Donovan Mitchell to win Rookie of the Year and Rudy Gobert to win Defensive Player of the Year have been launched by the Utah Jazz’s public relations team.

But quietly, among NBA inner circles, Jazz coach Quin Snyder’s name is also in the mix for Coach of the Year.

Whether he gets it or not is a different story, but the fourth-year sideline leader is certainly gaining traction for at the very least some form of consideration.
