Back in the 1991-92 season, the Malones averaged 28 points and 20.2 points per game, respectively. Mitchell and Bogdanovic are currently averaging 24.7 points and 21 points, respectively.

Since entering the league, Mitchell has been lighting up the scoreboard through his 3-point shooting and high-flying layups and dunks. His penchant for scoring, coupled with his maturity, is what he brings to the court every time he suits up.

Bogdanovic, for his part, has picked up his scoring for the past few seasons. From averaging just nine points per game in his rookie year, he bulked it up to double figures in the next season and constantly improved. He signed a lucrative four year, $73 million contract with the Jazz over the summer. And so far, he's been worth every penny for the squad.

However, Mitchell and Bogdanovic's scoring hasn't exactly translated to wins for the Jazz. So far, they have a mediocre 12-10 record for sixth place in the West. They made some key additions over the summer with hopes of beefing up their squad.

But from the looks of it, a few more tweaks are needed because things aren't exactly working as expected.
