(Jazz general manager Dennis) Lindsey and (coach Ty) Corbin are satisfied Utah is well-positioned for another run to the playoffs, which would be its second straight, sixth in seven seasons and 26th in the last 30.

Like Corbin, Lindsey is “excited” about the start of camp.

“We have a rock-solid group of players who aren’t selfish,” he said. “But we’ll have to see how that translates” to possible success on the court.

According to Corbin, the personnel moves made this summer will increase competition for playing time, which can’t hurt.

“We’ve had a great opportunity to visit individually with the guys,” he said. “We talked about what we expect from them. They have to compete every time they step on the floor. Nobody will be given anything.”
