Ricky Rubio continues to put up solid numbers, although his impact is still a source of discussion among the Utah fanbase. During the 18-19 season, the Spaniard averaged 12.7 points, 6.1 assists, and 3.6 rebounds per game, although he continued to struggle with his shot - connecting with just 40% of his field goal attempts.

Rubio's work on the defensive end is also open to criticism, and as an impending free agent, Utah must make a decision on if he features in their future plans. The 28-year-old earned more than $14 million for the 18/19 season, and when compared to other point guards around the league, a similar deal makes little sense for the Jazz.

The Jazz may not be able to complete a deal for their prime point guard target (Mike Conley), although a cheaper option such as Derrick Rose could contribute the same numbers as Rubio.
