There will be a talent gap between the Jazz and many of their opponents
Markkanen says he has not had a conversation with Utah’s front office about his long-term future. Austin Ainge, the Jazz’s new president of basketball operations, has said he is a “huge fan” of Markkanen and believes Markkanen can be part of Utah’s eventual success. Markkanen says he has had a few conversations with Ainge but “just to pick his brain” on basketball. “When I came back from Europe,” says Markkanen, “I feel like we got right back to work.” As for his future with the team, Markkanen says, “We try to go day by day.”
Hopefully competitive ones. Utah is under no illusions that it will compete with the best in a loaded Western Conference. “We’re going to have to win ugly, we’re going to have to win close, we’re going to have to have a lot of people have moments for us to win,” says Hardy. Wins over the Clippers, Suns and Celtics offer a blueprint. There will be a talent gap between the Jazz and many of their opponents. A motivated Markkanen, though, will go a long way to help close it.
