Reading Time: 2 minutesThe Utah Jazz currently hold the first place spot in the Western Conference, to the surprise of many.  Although Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert may be getting most of the credit and attention from the fans and media, Mike Conley deserves just as much respect for being a “glue guy” on this Jazz team.  When Utah traded for him before the 2019 season, Conley was coming off the best season of his career averaging over 20 PPG and over 6 APG.  The Grizzlies ended the season with 33 wins, and Conley was ultimately traded to Utah...
