Which Utah Jazz 10-day and two-way players I would like to see back in 2026-27
All season — and especially the last month — the Utah Jazz have been playing G-league and overseas-level players in an effort to lose games. Some of them made their NBA debuts for the Jazz and some are trying to make their NBA comebacks. Without being too critical, there’s a reason that most of these […]
Utah Jazz vs Cleveland Cavaliers recap: The closure with Donovan Mitchell is here
In another matchup where the Utah Jazz had to do everything they could to lose, Donovan Mitchell and the Cavs pulled away late to win 122-113. It’s another example of the Utah Jazz having to manipulate games to make sure they lose. What’s incredible is that this is against Donovan Mitchell, James Harden, Evan Mobley, […]
Utah Jazz vs Cleveland Cavaliers: Preview, start time, how to watch
As the season slowly winds to a close, Utah Jazz fans should be excited for the future at this point. It’s finally the end of this years-long blatant tank job. Depending on what happens with the Draft Lottery and the 2026 NBA Draft, next year should look tremendously different for this young Jazz squad. There […]
The most important/often overlooked NBA Draft principle
The amount of stats available to the average fan these days is astounding. Fans have never had it easier finding stats from games. Not only raw stats, but also advanced stats are extremely available for dissecting and comparing prospects. The problem is that the statistical element tends to dominate the narrative for every prospect, to […]
Utah Jazz vs Phoenix Suns Recap: Raining Threes in the Desert
The Utah Jazz rolled into Phoenix on Saturday for the second game of a back-to-back, after a gutsy, hard-fought loss to the Denver Nuggets on Friday night. Given the energy they expended in keeping pace with Jokic, Murray and company, and the walking wounded lining the Jazz bench, taking down Devin Booker and the Suns […]
Preview: The Utah Jazz slather some SPF-50 as they approach Phoenix
Some say it was one of the most blatant examples of tanking by the most heinous culprit of basketball’s trendiest crime. Others say that sitting your starters in the fourth quarter doesn’t really matter when you couldn’t pick half of Utah’s starters out of a lineup. Regardless of public opinion, whatever happened against the Denver […]
Utah Jazz fan survey results: Who is the most important Jazz player?
It’s a close one in this latest Utah Jazz Reacts survey results. The Utah Jazz are going to be very good next year, and I was curious who Jazz fans think will be the most important player. These results don’t include the potential results of the upcoming NBA lottery and draft, and that may change […]
NBA Draft Big Board 1.0: the star-saturated 2026 class, digestible
Welcome to the NBA Draft class of 2026! This year’s batch is positively loaded with star power at the top, with three to five premier prospects (depending on who you ask) boasting All-Star or even All-NBA potential and the talent to lift their floundering franchise to the promised land. The race between Big 12 stars […]
Utah Jazz vs Denver Nuggets recap and final score: Utah gave the Nuggets all they could handle
There were two different motivations for the teams in this game, one in need of a win for playoff positioning and one … not wanting a win. But if you weren’t familiar with the two teams in this game, you might have guessed the Jazz were the ones looking for the win and the Nuggets […]
Utah Jazz vs Denver Nuggets: Player Grades
Now THIS is how I like the Utah Jazz to lose basketball games; have the lead most of the game, find success with defense and energy, and barely lose at the very end when the other team finally remembers that they’re going up against a bunch of G-Leaguers and rookies. The Jazz were the easier […]
Utah Jazz vs. Denver Nuggets: Preview, start time, how to watch
The Utah Jazz are starting the first leg of a two-game roadtrip with a matchup against the Denver Nuggets Tonight. The Nuggets’ and Jazz’s situations could not be any more different at this point of the season. Denver, sitting fourth in the Western Conference standings any only 1.5 games behind the third seed, has successfully […]
2026 NBA Draft Profile: Don’t Forget About Mikel Brown Jr.
Most fans would be devastated to not land one of the top four guys in this draft class, and for good reason. While the top of the draft is loaded, the overall depth of the class is often overlooked. Several prospects in this draft have All-Star potential, one being Mikel Brown Jr. If Utah lands […]
Utah Jazz vs Washington Wizards recap and final score: The tankoff of tankoffs!
The Utah Jazz likely had this game circled on the calendar for some time. It’s the matchup of two ultra tankers facing off, and the prize for losing was all-important playoff positioning. The Utah Jazz came out on top … I mean, as the losers 133-110. At halftime, the Jazz were down a massive amount, […]
Utah Jazz Reacts: Who is the most important core player?
The Utah Jazz are clearly doing everything they can to keep their pick in the upcoming NBA draft. Something tells me that next season, we won’t see as many players on the injury report as this season. That means that the core of this Jazz team will play, and it’s clear they’re going to play […]
Utah Jazz vs Washington Wizards preview: Our own separate world of wizardry
Just last year, this rivalry was so legendary that Adam Silver had to personally step in and punish these teams by giving them the mathematically worst outcome on draft lottery night. The embers are still in the air, but these organizations are no longer the juggernauts of Tankathon. They’re retired, choosing to pave their own […]
Ace Bailey is making the most of his late-season minutes for the Utah Jazz
We’ve officially reached the stage in the NBA’s regular season where you watch a game between two non-playoff teams and think to yourself, “who are these players?” For the Utah Jazz, who are desperately trying everything in their power to raise their lottery odds and stay away from picks 9-16, the last few weeks have […]
Utah Jazz sign young guard to second 10-day contract
According to the Utah Jazz, they’ve signed Bez Mbang to a second 10-day contract. Mbeng has been a fun story for the Jazz as he’s provided nice defense and great energy while he’s been on the floor. We’ll see if he continues to get 10-day contracts but it wouldn’t be surprising, he’s fit in well […]
Utah Jazz vs Toronto Raptors recap and final score: Jazz loss sets them back to the Cretaceous period
Look, you probably watched this game on a Monday afternoon because of the four-day gap between March Madness’ Round of 32 and the Sweet 16. I don’t blame you — probably scrolling between the mediocre options on League Pass and settling for a tranquil Jazz-Raptors experience. Utah’s swift 126-116 loss against Philadelphia two nights ago […]
2026 NBA Draft Profile: Karim Lopez – One Of A Kind
According to Shams Charania, Karim Lopez has declared for the 2026 NBA Draft and is projected to become the first Mexico-born first-round pick in league history. ESPN currently has him ranked as the 11th best prospect on their Big Board, but as we approach the NBA Draft I wouldn’t be surprised if we see him […]
Preview: Utah Jazz dig for fossils with the Toronto Raptors in town
I know, I know, you’ve been glued to college basketball for the past four days — I get it. March Madness is possibly the greatest annual event in all of basketball. The buzzer-beaters, the upsets, and the endless stream of pure hooping goodness are all intoxicating. I won’t deny this. Nor will I plead with […]
Utah Jazz vs Philadelphia 76ers recap and final score: Jazz defeated by the hands of liberty
Philly has been stuck between a rock and a hard place during March. Maxey will miss at least three weeks due to a finger tendon injury. Embiid has statistically missed more games than he has played. Paul George was suspended for 25 games after violating the league’s anti-drug policy — I don’t know how he didn’t see […]
Utah Jazz News: Lauri Markkanen injury, new player signings and releases
The Utah Jazz are closing in on the end of the final tanking season of what has been an up-and-down rebuild. With just 12 games left, the Utah Jazz have some interesting injuries to deal with as well as a few new signings and releases. Lauri Markkanen injury update According to Sarah Todd, Lauri Markkanen […]
Philadelphia 76ers vs Utah Jazz: Preview, start time, how to watch
The third and fifth picks in the 2025 NBA draft face off against each other as the Philadelphia 76ers take on the Utah Jazz at the Delta Center on Saturday night. VJ Edgecombe is coming off a career high 38 point and 11 assist performance as the 76ers dismantled the Sacramento Kings on Thursday night. […]
Utah Jazz vs Milwaukee Bucks: Recap and final score
With most of their rotation players out, the Utah Jazz likely expected to drop one to a Bucks team that played the roster meant to convince Giannis Antetokounmpo to stay in Milwaukee. Utah ended up beating the Bucks 128-96. Probably not the best thing for the Bucks to prove to Giannis that he can win […]
Milwaukee Bucks vs. Utah Jazz: Preview, start time, how to watch
After a three-game roadtrip, the Utah Jazz are returning home to host the Milwaukee Bucks. Milwaukee has had a tumultuous season. After rumors that star Giannis Antetokounmpo was looking for a new home, trade talks fizzled and nothing materialized. Now the Bucks, 28-40 and in the 11th seed in the Eastern Conference, have found themselves […]
