I Did a Deep Dive on Jaxson Hayes. Here’s What I Learned.
Do you remember how nice it was when the Jazz used to have a good defense? I won’t blame you if you say no – 2022 was the last defense Utah has put forth that has been above league average, and even then, everyone knew it was a paper tiger. In recent years, the Jazz […]
Jazz Reacts: Here’s how excited Jazz fans are for this season
For what feels like the first time in some time, the excitement is palpable for the upcoming Utah Jazz season. With the addition of Darryn Peterson in the lottery, the addition of Jaren Jackson Jr., and the clear goal of pushing for wins, Jazz fans are excited for a season like they haven’t been since […]
Utah Jazz Regular Season Schedule Released
The Utah Jazz regular season schedule was released today. The Jazz did a great job with the reveal, with this amazing video featuring Thurl Bailey. Here’s a look at the full schedule from the Jazz. Some quick notes of interest. The return of Walker Kessler is just three games into the season (10/25). It’ll be […]
Utah Jazz face stiff competition in the NBA preseason
I hope you aren’t banking on the reformed Utah Jazz to go undefeated through preseason play, because your first peek at the new-era Jazz will be against some of the biggest stars in the NBA. Namely, Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets, followed immediately by a dance with Victor Wembanyama and the runner-up San Antonio […]
Jazz Fan Survey: How excited are you about this season?
This season, the Jazz will be trying something they haven’t tried for four years: to make the playoffs. There is a real shot for them to make it, too. With the addition of Jaren Jackson Jr. from the Grizzlies and Darryn Peterson from the draft, they’ve added some top-tier talent. Combine that with the leap […]
NBA Offseason Rumors: New Kevin Love Information
Last season, the Utah Jazz brought on Kevin Love as part of the John Collins three-team trade that helped continue the tank last season. Before the season started, it was rumored that Kevin Love might not be too interested in joining the Jazz once he got there. In fact, we’re almost exactly a year away […]
Jazz fan survey results: What Jazz fans think is possible
The Utah Jazz are going to have one of the most interesting seasons of any team this season. What makes it so interesting, besides the shift toward playoff contention, is how many different storylines there are to watch. Multiple players will be competing for different awards and accolades. Whether it’s Darryn Peterson, Keyonte George, Jaren […]
Utah Jazz Reacts: Which award is most likely?
The best part of the upcoming season for the Utah Jazz is that there are many potentially great outcomes for multiple players. For Keyonte George, he has a chance to take another step in his development, and it’s exciting to think about what that means. Jaren Jackson Jr. gets to be on a winning basketball […]
Did the Jazz fleece the Lakers in the Kessler trade more than we thought?
Beside LeBron James choosing the 76ers, the Jazz trading Walker Kessler to the Lakers for a crazy amount of picks was probably the biggest surprise of the offseason. Utah received two future unprotected picks as well as two pick swaps from the Lakers. The pick swaps are in 2028 and 2030 while the PIcks are […]
Jazz Fan Survey Results: How far will the Jazz go next season?
The Utah Jazz will be good next year. The question is how good. With the addition of Jaren Jackson Jr. last season, along with Darryn Peterson in the draft, it was looking like the record was going to improve a lot next season. The Walker Kessler trade complicated things, but it’s not clear how much. […]
How Good Will The Utah Jazz Defense Be This Season?
Last season defense was hard to come by for the Utah Jazz as they allowed an NBA worst 126 points per game. How will they fare this year with Walker Kessler’s departure and a retooled roster with its sights set on a playoff spot? There’s no question that losing Kessler to the Lakers is a […]
Proof that Darryn Peterson has a devastating crossover
Darryn Peterson came into the NBA touted as the best shooter in the draft, with the potential to be more as a lead guard. That potential became very apparent in Peterson’s first game against the Washington Wizards when he showed off an incredible crossover that left Jamir Watkins stumbling. It turns out that crossover might […]
Isaiah Collier’s steady supply chain will satiate generations
The Isaiah Collier discourse sure has subsided, hasn’t it? Nobody has anything to say about this first-round pick these days, but during an offseason filled with anxiety, I suppose no news is good news. Darryn Peterson struggled to whip the ball through the net against [blatantly illegal] aggressive 10-foul defensive schemes of the Las Vegas […]
I Did a Deep Dive on Josh Okogie. Here’s What I Learned.
We are officially into the doldrums of the offseason – Summer League is behind us, free agency is all but over, and we still have months until we first see our new team take the floor. It is in these doldrums that one begins to ponder the real questions of the soul: am I leading […]
Utah’s front office has had an incredible offseason
It’s been an active offseason for the Utah Jazz, and a really successful one. But more for the move they didn’t do than the ones they did. Recently, the Utah Jazz made what might have been the best move of the offseason that didn’t get celebrated as much as the splashiest moves. Utah deciding to […]
Utah Jazz Reacts Survey: How will the season end?
The Utah Jazz are coming into the season as maybe the most unpredictable team in either conference. No one is sure what to make of this collection of talent. Will the players achieve a level of cohesion and become better than the sum of their parts? Or will they struggle with the blend of youth […]
Utah Jazz sign former UNC small forward
The Utah Jazz announced they signed former UNC small forward, Harrison Ingram. According to the Jazz, terms of the deal were not disclosed. From Utah Jazz PR: The Utah Jazz announced today that the team has signed forward Harrison Ingram. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed. In their release, the Jazz […]
Utah Jazz Survey Results: What should happen at center?
The Utah Jazz came out of the 2026 NBA Draft on the verge of a breakout season. All that was left for the Jazz was to re-sign Walker Kessler. It felt like it was an inevitability until the news that the Lakers agreed to give the Jazz every asset they had to bring Walker Kessler […]
Offseason Grades: How Are The Jazz Doing So Far?
The offseason isn’t technically over – we’re all waiting on pins and needles for the Mario Hezonja decision – but the transactions have slowed substantially, and it looks like the Jazz have the majority of their roster set for the 2026-2027 season. We’ve consistently been told that this past season was the last in terms […]
NBA Trade Rumors: Are the Jazz part of the LeBron James decision?
We’re at the part of the summer where LeBron James is controlling the basketball narratives because there’s nothing to talk about. Apparently, the decision would have happened by now had Adam Silver not rushed him. Apparently, James is just like us and gets irritated by Adam Silver too. But that may just be a ruse. […]
Utah Jazz Reacts Survey: What should happen at center?
The Utah Jazz have mostly solidified their roster for the upcoming season post the Walker Kessler trade. They signed Jaxson Hayes and Mo Bamba to solidify the center position on the roster. That doesn’t mean they couldn’t do more. It’s possible for the Jazz to make a trade to improve that position if they wanted […]
‘The Summer I Turned Into Harvey Dent’, starring Darryn Peterson
“You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” Those are the immortal words of Harvey Dent, Two-Face, from Christopher Nolan’s epic The Dark Knight. I watched The Odyssey; I witnessed the pasty vampire from Twilight (also Bruce Wayne in The Batman, ironically) overcome his tragic microbangs to attempt […]
Every Jazzman Who Competed at the FIBA World Cup and How They Performed
As big of a fan as I am of basketball, I am JUST as big of a fan of the world of footy. Every four years a huge percentage of American’s pretend to care about the game for a few weeks up until the point that the USMNT loses in the knockout rounds, and then […]
Survey Results: Jazz fans say who they think will have the best career
In our latest Jazz Reacts survey, I asked who Jazz fans think will have the best career between Darryn Peterson, AJ Dybantsa, Caleb Wilson, and Cam Boozer. Here’s how Jazz fans feel. Probably not a surprise that Jazz fans believe that the Jazz prospect will have the best career. But it’s not a stretch to […]
NBA Trade Rumors: The Jazz should trade for this available center
According to Marc Stein, the Dallas Mavericks are fielding offers for Daniel Gafford. Stein goes on to say: Is Daniel Gafford going to be on this team by season’s end? It’s not an answerable question at this point. We know he’s available. This is the perfect type of move for the Utah Jazz. Gafford isn’t […]
