The Utah Jazz youngsters should include Talen Horton-Tucker as he along with Ochai Agbaji and Walker Kessler made mammoth plays down the stretch for the Utah Jazz to beat the Boston Celtics. The Jazz are playing more rookie minutes and getting more rookie scoring than any team in the league since March and yet are still in the play-in race.

Will Hardy turned to a join defense against the Celtics to tame their offensive explosion. It worked and it could be the wave of the future as teams in the NBA are scoring at an alarming rate in the half court.

One of those teams is the Sacramento Kings whose half court offense is the 2nd best of any team in NBA history. The league's overall offense prowess is on the rise at a rate of about 15% increase over 7 years. This is why the zone might be making a revival.

Then we take a look at the schedule of the playin competitors as well as league trends before our daily draft lottery.
