Eric Woodyard: Media Training Camp gives press a backstage pass to Utah Jazz land

SALT LAKE CITY — As members of the media — myself included — strolled into the Zions Bank Basketball Center on Friday afternoon, the newcomers didn’t know what to expect.

Sure, I had an idea of what the Utah Jazz Media Training Camp would look like, through studying old Jody Genessy reports, but I didn’t truly know what would happen.

“What would my jersey look like? Would the drills be hard? Will I look silly?” my mind wandered.

But then all that nervous energy was erased once I glanced at the throwback, purple and yellow Jazz practice gear gifted to all participants, including the vintage tube socks to match.
