Jazz was founded in 1974 and joined NBA. Founded in New Orleans, it moved to Salt Lake City in 1979 and officially renamed Utah Jazz . The home energy plan stadium has been crowned as the devil. After experiencing the struggle in the early days of its establishment, Jazz rose strongly in the 1980s, making it to the playoffs for 19 consecutive years, reaching the finals twice, and reaching the Western Conference Finals 6 times. Although he has never won the championship, many superstars have emerged in the team history.
Next, let's take a look at the top ten stars in the Jazz's history
tenth place. Carlos Boozer (2004-2010) played 354 games, averaging 19.3 points, 10.5 rebounds, 2.9 assists, and entered the playoffs with the team 4 times
Boozer spent the peak in the Jazz, and was the hot inside line in the league at that time. He eliminated the Rockets led by Yao Mai for two consecutive seasons, which became a pain in the hearts of many fans. He is also a famous "reverse boy" in the league, which greatly reduces his position in the hearts of fans.
Main honors: 1 best team, 2 All-Star , 2 Olympic champions
ninth place. Andre Kirilenko (2001-2011) played 681 games, averaging 12.4 points and 5.6 rebounds per game. Andrei Kirilenko (2001-2011) played 681 games, averaging 12.4 points and 5.6 rebounds per game. 2 assists, and scored 6 playoffs with the team
Kirillenko was one of the best all-round fighters in the league at that time. He had a terrifying 2.28-meter-28 arm span. A small forward won three blocks and was also the only non-inside player in the NBA to win the blocks. What I remember most is that he blocked Korea four times in 90 seconds, which shows his terrifying defensive ability; if he was in today's small ball era, he would definitely achieve higher achievements.
Main honors: 3 block kings, 3 best defensive lineups, 1 All-Star
8th place. Deron Williams (2005-2011) played for 439 games, averaging 17.3 points and 3.2 rebounds per game. 9.1 assist, led the team to 4 playoffs
Delong was the best point guard in the league at that time. He and Paul were "a peerless two prides" at that time. It has been rumored that eating and sleeping to play Paul is enough to prove the strength of the peak Delong. His body changes direction and becomes the nightmare of the outside defenders at that time. He is also regarded as the rise of the Jazz after the black and white double evil spirits. Hope, but the Jazz's career was too inflated later, and the contradiction with coach Sloan has also become a "stain" of life
Main honors: Best Rookie Team, 2 Best Team, 2 All-Star
Seventh place. Donovan Mitchell (2017-to-present) played for 423 games, averaging 23.9 points per game 4.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.3 steals, and scored 5 playoffs with the team
Mitchell is the face of the Jazz today and the future star of the league. After entering the league, he has made rapid progress and has grown into the team leader. However, his performance in the playoffs has been criticized in recent years. Mitchell can lead the team to the playoffs, but it is not enough to allow the team to compete for the championship. Next, Mitchell and the Jazz have also reached a watershed. He needs to perform better and bring more help to the team.
Main honors: Best Rookie First Team, 3 All-Stars
No. 6. Rudy Gobert (2013-present) played 611 games, averaging 12.3 points, 11.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists per game. Rudy Gobert (2013-present) averaged 12.3 points, 11.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists per game. 2.2 blocked, scored 6 playoffs with the team
Gobert is the largest center player in history, but his contribution to the Jazz can be called this contract. With one person supporting the Jazz's defense, he is the best defensive center in the league today. However, the current development of his duo with Mitchell has also encountered a bottleneck and has never been able to lead the team out of the West. The difficulties he faces next will also be a turning point in his career.
Main honors: 3 best defensive player, 2 block kings, 4 best lineup, 5 best defensive team one team, 3 All-Star
fifth place. Pete Malawic (1974-1980) played 330 games, averaging 25.2 points and 4.3 rebounds per game. 5.6 assists
"Pistol" is the first star since the Jazz's founding. He accompanied the Jazz through the difficult period of start-up. He showed the world the most gorgeous basketball and brought the Jazz to the public. His playing style was unprecedented and had epoch-making significance at that time. His name "Pistol" was also one of the famous signs of the NBA.
Main honors: 1 scoring champion, 3 best teams, 3 All-Stars, inducted into the Hall of Fame, NBA 50 superstar, No. 7 jersey retired, 68 team history record in a single game
fourth place. Mark Eaton (1982-1993) played for 875 games, averaging 6 points and 7.9 rebounds per game. 3.5 blocks, and scored 10 playoffs with the team
"Mammoth" career was dedicated to Salt Lake City. He supported the inside of the peak Jazz. His outstanding performance was also one of the important reasons why the Jazz were so strong at that time. He was the best defensive player in history and was synonymous with blocking. He averaged 3.5 blocks in his career and was the first in history. The record of 5.6 blocks in a single season is probably difficult to break.
Main honors: 4 block kings, 2 best defensive player, 5 best defensive team, 1 All-Star, No. 53 jersey retired, 456 blocks in a single season, first in history, team block kings
third place. Adrian Dantley (1979-1986) played 482 games, averaging 29.6 points, 6.2 rebounds, 3.7 assists per game. 1.1 steal, led the team to 2 playoffs
Young fans may think that the current star Mitchell has super scoring ability, but Dantley is the Jazz's best scorer. He is a famous singles king in NBA history. He averaged 30+ points per game for four consecutive seasons during the Jazz. His shooting percentage in the Jazz has never been lower than 53% in 6 years. He is a terrifying scoring machine. He also led the Jazz to the playoffs for the first time.
Main honors: 2 scoring champion, 2 best team, 6 All-Stars, inducted into the Hall of Fame, No. 4 jersey was retired
second place. John Stockton (1984-2003) played 1,504 games, averaging 13.1 points, 10.5 assists, 2.2 steals, led the team to 19 playoffs
Stockton is an excellent representative of "one person, one city". He played for all his 19-year career and has never missed the playoffs, and entered the Western Conference Finals 5 times in 7 years. The Jazz's two finals were the most glorious period, but unfortunately, they met , Jordan at the wrong time. He is also the uncrowned king of the NBA. Stockton's most low-key super giant is also the purest point guard, and he is the NBA's historical assist and steal king.
Main honors: 9 assist king, 2 steal king, 11 best team, 5 best defensive team, 10 All-Stars, inducted into the Hall of Fame, NBA 50 superstar, No. 12 jersey retired, NBA total assist king + steal king, team assist king, team history assist king, team history steal king, team history three-point king, team history steal king
No. 1 player in team history. Carl Malone (1985-2003) played 1,434 games, averaging 25.4 points and 10.2 rebounds per game With 3.5 assists, he led the team to 18 playoffs
" Postman " was the second largest in history. Although he failed to live his life in the Jazz, he has long become the pride of Salt Lake City in 18 seasons. The " Utah Double Sword " composed of him and Stockton is also known as the best duo in history. His career total score of 36,928 points in history is third beyond the reach of his juniors. His team history status with Stockton is difficult to surpass.
Main honors: 2 MVPs, 11 Best Team One Team One Team, 3 Best Defensive Team One Team One Team One Team One 14 All Stars, Initialized in Hall of Fame, NBA 50 Superstar, No. 32 jersey retired, team scoring champion, team history rebounding king
Jazz has never won the championship but has always maintained a strong team posture. However, the Jazz have been disappointed in recent seasons. They can play first in the regular season, but they can't even touch the floor of the Western Conference Finals. At present, the contradiction between the team's core Mitchell and Gobert is also a headache. There is not much time left for them. If the team cannot go further next season, they will face reconstruction. I hope this young team can reshape the glory of their predecessors and give fans more surprises in the new season.
