Let's get to it in danger.

You are Locked on Fantasy, your daily NBA fantasy podcast, part of the Locked-on

Podcast Network, your team every day.

Hello and welcome to the Locked-on Fantasy Basketball podcast, brought to you by Basketball

Monster.

My name is Josh Lloyd, and I am in foul territory. What are we talking about? I think you know that it's Utah Jazz because I said that part already. So let's talk about the Utah Jazz. We're talking about more of the veterans, more of the established guys in this show. Then tomorrow we'll go with some of the younger guys and a little bit more of a team overview. I think it'll be tomorrow. Probably will be tomorrow. I think it's tomorrow.

Hope it's tomorrow. Because now that I've said that it's tomorrow, it should be tomorrow. We'll be doing. Utah Jazz. Let's dig in. We'll go straight off. We'll just start with Lowry Markinen. Because Markinen, and you'll see this when we go through some of the stuff, I was pretty confident

top eight, otherwise it goes to the thunder, nobody wants that to happen. And despite what

Austin Ainge said, that was very clearly a lie, that they were going to try to keep that

pick and be bad, they were going to tank. So I was very cautious on Larry Marketing.

I also, I was right on that, but I was wrong on marketing because he also, just in terms

of his on-court play the year before, was not very good.

A lot of his numbers are dipped, but he turned that around.

When he was on the court this past season, his numbers were great.

He was the 16th ranked player per game. The year before, I think he was like 60th. He was

nowhere near this number. So his on court stuff improved a lot. What really changed?

Well, usage at 27% was great. He played 34 minutes a night. He was the 24th player in points
