The Jazz lost this one 109-99 to the Brooklyn Nets. They kept it close for the majority of this game, but in the end Cam Thomas and Egor Demin outgunned the Jazz. That pretty much sums this one up. I think the tanking this year has numbed my brain, but it will all be worth […]

The Utah Jazz were extremely successful tanking lost to the Brooklyn Nets 109-99. It was a battle of wills between two teams very interested in adding lottery talent to their teams. The Nets won but it was very much not he outcome they probably wanted. Don’t forget, the Jazz and Nets both had bad lottery […]

Utah, 3.5 games behind at a record of 15-33, could make a significant close in the gap with the loss tonight. The Jazz, who according to Austin Ainge […]

If I were an actual teacher, I’d be quite tempted to dock the entire class points for what was, by all accounts, a thorough and unquestionable defeat to the shorthanded Golden State Warriors. Defensively, the Jazz resisted with all the integrity of a five-cent water balloon as the visitors sliced, diced, and tore through Utah’s […]

The Utah Jazz have dropped their fourth-straight game after tonight’s loss against the Golden State Warriors. The final score was 140-124. As is the case most nights, Utah struggled tremendously on defense. Utah allowed Golden State to attempt 54 attempts from behind the arc, with the Warriors connecting on 43% of them. Sure, the Warriors […]

In the latest Stein Line, Marc Stein reveals the Utah Jazz will be active this trade season, but it’s not likely to be for a big name. From Marc Stein: With various teams hard-capped at the first apron or just trying to remain below that threshold — or out of the luxury tax altogether — […]

The Jazz had their first nationally televised game, and it did not disappoint… for the first half. In the second half, they fell apart and struggled mightily without Keyonte George. They also faced some familiar faces in John Collins, and Kriss Dunn. Dunn had a fantastic night, notching 5 steals and 14 points. These were […]

The Utah Jazz will take on the Golden State Warriors with a mostly full strength team, something that hasn’t happened in some time. Lauri Markkanen is back after returning yesterday against the Los Angeles Clippers. The Jazz were without Jusuf Nurkic and Keyonte George in that one and were soundly beaten. Today, on the back […]

Lauri Markkanen finally returned for the Utah Jazz tonight, but the young squad was unable to hang with the Los Angeles Clippers. In the end and after a valiant fight (even holding a lead for much of the 1st half), Utah fell to the Clips with a score of 115-103. The 2nd half ended up […]

Alright, who broke it? I’m not mad, I just need the culprit to come forward, because this space-time continuum isn’t going to fix itself. Do you see that giant rift? The tear in the fabric of reality? One of you did this, and no one is leaving until you fess up. Something hasn’t been right […]

Is Jusuf Nurkic the most dangerous man in the NBA? I’m mostly joking, of course, because despite the fact that he’s on an unprecedented run of three consecutive triple-doubles (which was on nobody’s bingo card at the beginning of the season, don’t even pretend), it took a herculean performance from Keyonte George to claim the […]

Today, the NBA announced the 2026 Castrol Rising Stars Rookies, and a notable name was missing: Ace Bailey. It’s a frustrating omission that I’m sure Bailey will not be happy about. He has done everything the Jazz have asked him to, and his reward for much of this season was watching minutes go to Svi […]

Move aside Nikola Jokic, there’s a new triple-double king in the NBA — for this week. In one of the most random statistical stretches in Utah Jazz history, Jusuf Nurkic has done what no other Utah Jazz player past or present has done: record three straight triple-doubles. On Tuesday, Nurkic logged only the second triple-double […]

Jusuf Nurkic made Utah Jazz history in a blowout loss to the Miami Heat. No Jazz player has ever recorded three consecutive triple-doubles until tonight. Jusuf Nurkic, who was visibly gassed at the end of the game, stayed in despite the Utah Jazz being down by about 30 points. In the final minutes, he grabbed […]

According to Tim MacMahon, the Washington Wizards are “fairing to make a significant offer” for Walker Kessler. The reality is that the Utah Jazz can match any offer given to Kessler, so they can make sure he’s here next season. The question becomes, do they want to offer what the Wizards might give him? Utah, […]

The homestand continues with the first meeting against the Miami Heat, as the Jazz welcome them to the Delta Center. Last year, the record was split 1-1 between the two groups, both of them winning on the road. After Utah’s collapse on Thursday night, they could probably afford an extra win or two without concern […]

One look at the injury report, and it was clear that the Utah Jazz were welcoming Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio into the Delta Center for a 48-minute formality. We can do the whole song and dance, or you can kindly take your victory and go. No Lauri Markkanen, as he is still absent […]

For most fan bases, triple-doubles are a common occurrence. But for fans of the Utah Jazz, Just Nurkic’s stat line of 16 points, 18 rebounds and 10 assists in a win against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night holds a special place in their hearts. That triple-double was only the second one by a Jazz […]

There’s no rest for the weary. After yesterday’s loss to the San Antonio Spurs, the Utah Jazz will take on the Minnesota Timberwolves at home. It looks like the Jazz will be without Lauri Markkanen again in this one, who is out with illness again. They’ll also be without Brice Sensabaugh. At this point in […]

The Utah Jazz continued their quest toward a top pick in the draft with a loss to the San Antonio Spurs 123-110. The final score looks like a dominant win, but Utah was in this game, and even led through three quarters when the Spurs pulled away. We don’t need to pretend, like the broadcast […]
