The Utah Jazz have been mighty frisky over the past two months in the throes of trying to tank away the season. Credit to the players and Will Hardy for playing hard and making a lot of these games interesting, right?

Well the Jazz decided those calls were just too close for comfort, so the Jazz decide to really lean hard into letting 10-day signees sop up 40+ miinutes in random games. (Spoiler alert: Utah STILL was competitive in a number of games against top competition! They also lost to the Wizards by 20.)

Mark Russell Pereira (⁠@markrussellpereira.bsky.social⁠) had to sound off about this brazen flaunting of watchable basketball.  Giving a ton of minutes to your deep prospects and two-way guys is one thing, but this felt like something else.

It's not all negative though, as the broader Utah Jazz prospect class has looked terrific over the past month, and Mark recaps the wild successes of Ace Bailey & Co. in the month of March.
