Can the Utah Jazz break the cycle of poor defensive performance? David Locke, radio voice of the Utah Jazz and NBA Insider, dives into a decade of NBA data to uncover the daunting reality facing teams that rank in the bottom five defensively.

He highlights the significant role of key players like Rudy Gobert and the impact of coaching changes in driving defensive improvements.
