Ever since they more or less started fresh, the Utah Jazz's defense has been downright lousy. It's pretty much always been the case despite Walker Kessler's abilities. It's abundantly clear that he's only a piece of the puzzle, and that they'll need more than him. If the Jazz plan to win sooner than later, they'll need more defensive personnel, and one player who'd make a lot of sense is Lu Dort.
The Salt Lake Tribune's Andy Larsen mentioned Dort among the Jazz's potential targets, noting that he's in the realm of possibility because the Thunder may not have a choice but to let him go.
