The Utah Jazz have high expectations heading into the 2019-20 season. As clearly evidenced throughout media day, this team firmly believes that it can compete for a championship. Therefore, while the Jazz know they play in a deep and challenging conference, there’s not a single team that strikes fear into their hearts or that they don’t believe they can beat.
Nevertheless, any stroke of luck or bit of help along the way that could very well prove significant to their final seeding preparing for the playoffs will be welcome. And though it’s under a bit of unfortunate circumstances, it appears that the Jazz will indeed catch a significant break early in the season.
