Morning links, Backstreet Boys edition: A new Utah Jazz starting 5?

SALT LAKE CITY — Five athletic performers sported Utah Jazz City Edition jerseys in Vivint Arena on Wednesday night, and the crowd went bonkers.

Unfortunately for their adoring fans, AJ McLean, Howie Dorough, Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson and Brian Littrell are not currently on the team’s roster.

Fortunately for Jazz fans who prefer victories over vocals, that's probably a good thing.

Regardless, the Backstreet Boys did create a buzz at their SLC concert when they came out for an encore wearing the popular Jazz gear.

Oh, and we’ll presume that they’re all wearing No. 19 for their 2019 tour and not because they’re fans of Raja Bell or Patrick Christopher.
