NBA: The all-time starting 5 of the Utah Jazz

Forward: Adrian Dantley

Even though some consider Adrian Dantley as a journeyman since he played for seven teams during his 15-year career, he was one of the best scorers of his generation. He had his best years while playing with the Jazz from 1979 to 1986 wherein he was named an All-Star six times. Dantley was also a two-time scoring champion in 1981 and 1984.

The Hall of Famer sits third in the Jazz all-time scoring list with a total of 13,635. There was even a time when Dantley averaged at least 30.0 points per game in four straight years from 1981 to 1984. However, he only led the Jazz to the playoffs twice but his No. 4 jersey has been retired by the franchise.

Honourable Mention: Andrei Kirilenko

In 10 seasons with the Jazz, Andrei Kirilenko established himself as one of the best defenders and most versatile players in the NBA. “AK47” hit his prime a little too early in his third and fourth year in the NBA. He was an All-Star in 2004 and was named All-NBA Defensive First Team in 2006.
