The Jazz Are Off to a Surprising Start

Utah’s fourth-quarter luck ran out Monday night during a loss to the lowly, bickering Rockets.

But I thought it’d be worth it to spotlight the Jazz, who have no scheduled national TV games this season after having dealt away Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert to kickstart a rebuild.

Simply put: Utah has been unexpectedly fun thus far. Many of us, myself included, saw the Jazz shipping out their stars and immediately figured the losses would pile up like crazy. (And they probably will at some point.) At the same time, though, this isn’t necessarily a young team.
