This Jazz team is just terrible at holding onto the ball, no two ways about it.

That's what happens when you play 3 big men and a rookie point guard. Conversely, that's what happens when you only let two players dribble the ball and the other players have to shoot the 3 when they get the ball (Williams/Jones Jr.) or dunk it (Lively)

It's definitely Clarkson, Sexton, and Horton-Tucker turning the ball over.

Keyonte and the bigs aren't that bad.

It's what happens when every single guard is a shooting guard. Don't need to explain Clarkson, but THT and Sexton have similar playstyles (drive and hope to score and maybe pass) and Keyonte George was a shooting guard in college. The other offender is Olynyk, who's got passing chops, but also throws it away plenty.

Combine that with a bunch of guys who have barely ever played together, and it's a match made in hell.
