This week in Jazz talk

The shows spent the week on the Jazz's roster construction heading into the season. The Ringer had them penciled in sixth in the West, with praise for Lauri Markkanen and coach Will Hardy, though depth remains a question mark. Zach Lowe's show dug into the team's cap situation, discussing extension candidates like Keyonte George and Bryce Sensabaugh as Utah tries to build around its core. They also gave a shout-out to Josh Okogie's offseason performance with Nigeria.
