SALT LAKE CITY -- The Utah Jazz brought in Jaren Jackson Jr. with an eye on accelerating the franchise's rebuilding process. When the Jazz acquired the two-time All-Star in a trade with Memphis on Feb. 3, it sent a clear signal Utah is serious about moving closer to playoff contention next season. The Jazz envision Jackson forming a long-term frontcourt partnership with top scorer Lauri Markkanen that promises to create size and length mismatches against many opponents.
