What coaches and players say about roles, minutes, gameplans and development.
Jackson and Hayes playing together is a good sign and their size gives Utah a defensive anchor.
“I think it's a good sign seeing those guys play together. Obviously, we're still working through a bunch of different lineups, and their size, I think, gives us a little bit of an anchor defensively.”
Peterson and George are meant to mix up who brings the ball when they share the floor.
“I think it good for both he and Key when they on the floor together to mix up who brings it and who doesn”
Bailey spells Jackson at the 3 while Markkanen slides to the 4 for a few minutes.
“Ace Bailey comes in to relieve JJJ, which allows Lauri to slide to the 4, then JJJ returns for Lauri a few minutes later. Allows Ace to play the 3, and Lauri to get some 4 minutes, where I think they're both most comfortable.”
