Realistically, what has to happen is
that Oni, Brantley and Forrest all need to make big developmental jumps. All 3 are outstanding athletes for where they play on the floor, so from that angle they are more capable of meaningful improvement than guys like Niang or Thomas. But who knows if Forrest can ever learn to shoot the 3 or if Oni can ever tighten his handle enough to become a threat to drive.

The other wildcard is Azubuike. He had better combine measurables than Favors and Favors was an off-the-charts athlete when he was the #3 pick. The Jazz will have to stick with the Gobert/Favors combo next year, but the team really needs Azubuike to develop into a quality backup center. He's only 21 and the athletic tools are all there. He just needs to stay healthy, learn from Rudy and hone his craft.
