Our Team Is On The Floor
The Utah Jazz season is officially over, and they were able to end the season tied for 4th with the Sacramento Kings in the lottery standings. It’s a successful season for the Utah Jazz, whose biggest goal was to keep their lottery pick while also developing their young talent … and also not playing Lauri […]
The Utah Jazz had their final game of the season, but also the rebuild. It will not be remembered long as the outcome was expected, an easy win for the Lakers 131-107. There were some things to take away for the Jazz. They played hard in this one, much like they’ve done all season, regardless […]
The Utah Jazz are planning on winning in the coming years, and Yaxel Lendeborg should be a serious candidate for them even if they land somewhere in the top 5 come May/June. Draft Philosophy First, I want to start with my personal draft philosophy and why I believe Yaxel checks every box of what a […]
The Utah Jazz will take on the Los Angeles Lakers in what is more than just the season finale. It feels more like the finale to four years of rebuild. Tonight will be the last time the Utah Jazz will go into a game for the foreseeable future with hopes of losing. This offseason will […]
In our most recent Utah Jazz Fan Reacts survey, we’re looking forward to what is likely going to be an incredibly consequential offseason. Utah may have to make some tough decisions as they look at their roster. This season, the Utah Jazz have been playing to position themselves as well as they can for the […]
According to Shams Charania, the Utah Jazz signed Hayden Gray to a two-year contract. Gray is known as a defense-first guard who fits the mold of recent signings the Jazz have made. We saw the Jazz sign Bez Mbeng to a two-year contract, who was also a high-level defender in college. At UC San Diego, […]
In 20 years at a sports bar trivia night, the host will ask, “There’s only been one time ever where two bench players on the same team recorded a triple-double in the same game. Who were those two players?” And when the answer is revealed to be Bez Mbeng and John Konchar for the Utah […]
If the Utah Jazz were fined $500,000 for suspected tanking in a game that they won, Adam Silver had better be aligning the crosshairs of his catastrophic death laser (every NBA commissioner has had one since Larry O’Brien had his commissioned back in ‘83) directly at the Memphis Grizzlies. If Utah’s tanking was worth half […]
It was Fan Appreciation Night in Salt Lake and boy, did the home team give the fans something to appreciate, as the Jazz beat down the shorthanded Grizzlies by 46. Two Jazz bench players recorded triple doubles, a feat unparalleled in living memory. Kennedy Chandler – A- Kennedy’s speed is reminiscent of Isaiah Collier, but […]
I apologize first of all to you, reader, to have to strengthen your mental fortitude to have the mental capacity to withstand the horrors you will certainly witness tonight. These teams have no business facing each other in a late April matchup — they’d probably prefer a 50-point blowout loss against the top teams in […]
The Utah Jazz season is nearing an incredibly important lottery, and Jazz fans will be watching the lottery balls closely. But whether the Jazz jump in the lottery or not, the Jazz have had some rookies and prospects make an impact during the current rebuild. Utah can’t likely keep all of them, and so that’s […]
Of course, Utah is throwing every good luck charm they have into acquiring a top 3 selection in this year’s draft. AJ Dybantsa would be a match made in heaven. Darryn Peterson has the best fit. Cameron Boozer follows in Papa Carlos’ footsteps. Utah is also perfectly fine standing pat at 4, if it means […]
In a game the Utah Jazz had to lose, they got the job done in a big way against the New Orleans Pelicans, losing 156-137. Defense was absolutely optional in this one, but it was exceptionally bad for the Utah Jazz, who somehow gave up 156 points. But this is not something to be shamed […]
Jazz lose. Nets win. You can’t ask for a more successful night at this point in the season. Hopefully the Kings can win tonight to complete a perfect night for the Jazz. Cody Williams – C Cody had a pair of airballs tonight, and also went 0-5 from deep, but his midrange shot continues to […]
The Utah Jazz are rolling into New Orleans for a vital end-of-season game. Like their counterparts at the top of the Western Conference standings, every game at this point is important for seeding. For the Jazz, of course, it’s ticking up the losses column that matters most; the Jazz hold the tiebreaker over the Sacramento […]
Let’s be honest, Cameron Boozer’s name was never in the conversation for #1, and he has slim chances at being #2. Even his projected #3 spot has been infiltrated by names such as Caleb Wilson or Darius Acuff. Much like his father, who we should all be aware of by now if you dare call […]
I was very tempted to tally every Jazzman tonight to a D or lower, but I had to remind myself who we’re dealing with. No one who is sane thought there was possibly a conceivable chance that the Jazz could have the hope of maybe winning this game by a long shot. The Jazz defense […]
The Utah Jazz lost to the Oklahoma City Thunder, with a final score of 111-146 in a game that was never particularly close. In a matchup of the Williams brothers, the older, more All-Star of the two, won handily. Jalen Williams finished with 15 points and 7 assists in only 26 minutes, whereas the younger […]
My significant other suggested that I ask each of you to “tuna in” to the Utah Jazz’s upcoming contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder. I don’t know what could have possibly possessed her to ask this of me, nor have I figured out what tuna could have to do with a basketball game of any […]
In our most recent Utah Jazz Reacts survey, we got some interesting answers from Utah Jazz fans. Utah is nearing the end of another season where draft position was the goal. With that in mind, most of Jazz Nation is looking forward to next season and how good the team will be. One of the […]
The Utah Jazz’s eight-man skeleton crew space walked to another important loss, falling to Houston 106-140 on Friday night. It’s the latest stage in the team’s moon shoot to mediocrity, losing 12 out of the last 13 games, as it navigates a tricky trajectory between competing and not winning. With a Kings loss tonight, the […]
The Utah Jazz and the Houston Rockets played in what was clearly an end-of-season game for two teams going in different directions this offseason. Houston won easily, 140-106. Houston is a talented but imperfect team that was able to out-talent the Jazz, who are playing a rotation of developmental players, rookies, and 10-day contract players. […]
Tonight marks the Jazz’s preparation for their closing performance in the ceremony. They went through the depths of hell for the last four years, they made their bid for Ace Bailey, they got their win-now trade piece, and now we must bid adieu to what was the strangest Jazz season in the last decade. Funnily […]
The Utah Jazz are signing Bez Mbeng to a two-year contract, according to Shams Charania via Mbeng’s agent. This comes after hearing from Sarah Todd that Mbeng would be signed through the end of the season. This is great news for Mbeng, who brings defensive intensity to the Jazz on the perimeter. It’s a sign […]
Look, as far as couch-bound talent evaluators go, I haven’t been the most pro-Peterson scout during his freshman season at Kansas. The off-court issues left many — including myself — questioning his motives, drive to compete, and overall health as he withdrew from games on his own accord and constantly battled nagging injuries from the […]
