The zone defense is supposed to be a change of pace that is designed to surprise an opponent a few times a night. The Utah Jazz have lived in variations of the zone defense for the last two nights at a remarkable rate. David Locke, radio voice of the Utah Jazz and Jazz NBA Insider digs into the numbers and how much the Jazz have played zone and how wildly impressive the zone has been for the Jazz.
Collin Sexton and Talen Horton-Tucker have played really solid guard play without Keyonte George and Jordan Clarkson. The Jazz guard combo is showing great signs of growth and without Lauri Marrkannen, Simone Fontechhio has stepped up into a solid role player and held his starter minutes well.
It’s a points gained Friday. As Giannis has become the most positively impactful offensive player in the NBA rather than Steph Curry.

Let’s whisper in the chat too so we don’t wake up Ron 🤫
Sexton has turned the corner!!!
Is sexton gonna get the starting nod when George comes back. Collin has been an absolute beast.
Whatever Sexton has done, it's an incredible turn around
Us as Utah Jazz fans don't get to meet the players on a personal note so the only thing we get to use to judge them on is their play on the hardwood.
A long time ago, I mentioned I love the stats you drop… still do…thank you…. I so wonder why no one else does it…
I feel like Hendricks is ready to bust out for a huge game.
The Lakers wanted Fontecio and he decided to sign with us
Young Stallion may be a good Nick name for Fontecio because Italian stallion already taken.
Getting half of our horrible defenders off the court helps the team more than lauri being on it. This team is capable of competing like last year, but not if half your lineup refuses to or cant defend
Tht, font, lauri, ko, walker. Thats a competetive starting 5. I highly doubt hardy is willing to move KG to the bench tho
I would like to see this lineup.
Any of the 5 Pg, then Taylor at 2, Lauri at 3 KO at 4 Kessler at 5. Thing of playing a Zone with this lineup. Almost 7 ft in 4 out 5 spots.
Will keep saying it till you wake up and realize THT needs to get the keys w Lauri. Keyonte is going to take a while to develope THT is still only 22 and better if you want to win now
These backgrounds are so distracting… watching you appear and disappear into the background just doesn’t work… at least for me a daily listener
Yahoo posted an article and mentioned Lauri in trade talks. They ultimately mentioned how GM’s don’t think the Jazz will trade him but that they’re listening to offers.
Do you have any comments/insight on that?
Thanks David "Sherlock" Holmes for the stats!
Thanks for your thoughts David. Great job.
This is the "easy listening" version of Locked on Jazz lol. Thanks for getting up early to share some very interesting stats! Love your energy (when it's not 6:30).
The backgrounds are terrible very distracting. Is that an Atari 800 that you're using for the graphics?
Forza Simone!!!
