Last fall, the Utah Jazz were one of three NBA teams to help make international hoops history. For the first time ever, three teams from the Australian NBL traveled to the US to take on NBA squads during the 2017 preseason. The Jazz participated by playing host to the Sydney Kings at Vivint Smart Home Arena.
As the old saying goes: one good turn deserves another. Per announcements from both leagues, Aussie teams will be making the trip for a second time next preseason. This time around, though, the Jazz band will go toe-to-toe with two Aussie teams, both of which feature some familiar faces.
