Jazz have arguably the worst bench in the league

I disagree. Neto, Burks, Ingles, Booker, and Lyles project to be a very good bench.

I doubt the Jazz will give another contract to Booker next season. In my opinion they have to sign a PF/C to vets minimum contract, like Bargnani signed this season with the Nets. The Jazz have to save money for the Gobert next contract.
 
I like the Jazz' wing rotation of Hood, Hayward and Burks with Ingles as the 4th. Obviously could replace Ingles with a shooter, but this is the lowest priority, IMO.
2. Jazz need a stretch-4 and a backup 5. Need to see if Lyles and Pleiss /Withey can be those backups. Ideally, replace those two centers with a player who is 6'10"-11" and can provide some scoring and a physical presence to spell Gobert.
3. Exum and Neto should be a decent rotation. However, a PG who can hit 3's would be nice.

These should be the priorities for next season to be competitive in the playoffs.

I don't know. It will depend on the price, Booker is a Utah Jazz type of player. They have always loved hustle guys who give it their all. It will probably depend on Lyles and the price Booker is expected to get.
 
Burke and Burks seem to be killing it. I get that other parts of our bench aren't as solid, but Burke and Burks have kept us in a lot of games (and been the difference maker in some wins )
