Players like Dante Exum and Donovan Mitchell will surely have certain games where they play over 20+ minutes that night, while they may also have games where they see only 12 minutes of floor time.

I've yet to anyone raving about Exum's play yet so he may not be on the team!

Dante Exum: It is possible that Dante breaks out this season.

More likely he continues to underwhelm though

3) Utah Jazz

The offense is also a question mark. Not so much in terms of running it through Rodney Hood

That's certainly one of the biggest question marks. A 6th man is your go to guy?

The Jazz split up into teams so that the starting unit all played on one team, wearing gray. That meant that the starting Gray team in the scrimmage was Ricky Rubio, Rodney Hood, Joe Ingles, Derrick Favors, and Rudy Gobert. That's a good bet for the Jazz's day one starting lineup Monday.

Hood is a 6th man

One teammate of Joe Ingles' told me he's been shooting the ball as well or better than ever, and that was on display in the scrimmage.

Going to be tougher this year

Tony Bradley was really impressive to me. He rebounded and finished well, but my favorite part was when he got switched out on someone on the perimeter (admittedly, Royce O'Neale, not the quickest wing) and moved his feet well to force a turnover. He's very fundamentally sound, though had a fantastic block on Eric Griffin in transition.

Good to hear. Hopefully he does well with the Stars and can be in the rotaion later in the year

Dante Exum struggled to find his game at first, but had a lot more success in the second half against fellow Jazz benchers. He got to the free-throw line at will then, because his length and surprising layup timing forced defenders to foul him. "I thought he attacked, and I thought he made good decisions and tried to run the club, too," Snyder said.

Against the bench. Can he actually play?

Raul Neto is just so much fun. It's not that he did anything that we haven't seen him do before, but his vision and passing is special.

Too bad it will take another team to appreciate him

Exum, who will be fighting for time this season behind Rubio at the point, and perhaps with several others on the wing, was impressive in the second half when he got to the basket several times for scores and also sank a 3-pointer.

wow a 3!

Man. Gobert may be in for a big year. He's on another level
2:48 PM - Sep 29, 2017

I expect he has improved. Too bad the team around him hasn't. It will be tough for him without shooters

Andy Larsen ✔ @andyblarsen
Gray team wins, 49-41. Rudy Gobert, Joe Ingles, Donovan Mitchell, Tony Bradley, and Raul Neto all really impressive.
3:21 PM - Sep 29, 2017

Bradley is the surprise. Hopefully he'll be ready to contribute later on in the year when the roster changes. Was he playing with Rudy? That would be big

Tony Jones @tribjazz
Joe Ingles looks like he's gotten better over the summer. He's been making a ton of plays
2:54 PM - Sep 29, 2017

Be surprised if he's a lot better

Tony Jones @tribjazz
Really like how Exum has played in the second half
3:11 PM - Sep 29, 2017

Maybe someday he'll put together a full game

[QUOTE]Dante Exum was dominating driving to the rim in the 2nd half of the game when most of the main players were out of the game. Quin Snyder pointed out after the scrimmage that sometimes it is hard to tell how some of our guys are playing offensively because they run into Rudy in practice and there are only one or two defenders who can come close to Rudy. With Rudy out of the game, Dante was lightening quick getting by defenders and getting to the rim. Dante

Arnovitz thinks the Jazz will be a top five defense. Not a new thought, certainly, but still interesting from a national voice.

Really going out on a limb with that one

The best part of the conversation was about Dante Exum. It sounds like Arnovitz is a bigger fan, but Lowe has real questions about whether or not Exum will maintain his place in the rotation.

What spot? He hasn't really had a spot since he was a rookie and he was one of the worst offensive players ever that year! Last year him, Neto and Mack were all in and out and Neto had seemingly won the spot before getting injured at the end of the season. Of course it hasn't stopped the local hype about the guy. He needs to earn a spot. Simple as that!

What sucks is that only the first two games are televised and we won't be able to actually see if Exum can play against NBA talent still
