Utah Jazz vs Golden State Warriors: preview, start time, channel

It was a roller-coaster start that saw the Utah Jazz start the season 7-16 and then go 15-4 right after. It left the Jazz looking like they could be on the verge of being the surprise story of the season and potentially the playoffs. But after a tough loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder that ended the Jazz’s 6-game win streak at the time, the Jazz started another stretch of losing leading up to the trade deadline. With the team around .500, the Jazz had to make a decision. They chose to lean into the youth movement, and it helped them develop players while losing enough games to be in the 8-spot in the draft.
