About us
The Utah Jazz is a professional basketball team based in Salt Lake City, Utah. They are currently part of the Northwest Division of the Western Conference in the NBA (National Basketball Association). Originally located in New Orleans, Louisiana, the franchise began in 1974 as the New Orleans Jazz and the18th professional basketball team to enter the NBA. Despite drawing well, the franchise struggled and was eventually moved to Salt Lake City, Utah in 1979 after just five years in the league. In 1985, Larry H. Miller became co-owner of the still struggling organization, and then a year later, purchased the remaining portion from Sam Battistone to become the sole owner. The Jazz has since become one of the more successful teams in the league with frequent post-season playoff appearances, including consecutive appearances from 1984 to 2004, as well as two NBA Finals appearance in 1997 and 1998.

A pretty amazing surreal experience today. Releasing the first feature-length documentary for the Utah Jazz. We premiered the film a few days ago in the Delta Center with hundreds of fans as well as D-Will, Adrian Dantley, Thurl Bailey and Frank Layden all watching. They were sitting a row in front of me in the stands. It was a pretty cool day, to say the least. Really proud of the whole team at the Jazz and our partners at Heart & Hustle Productions. The opportunity to be a part of all this was something special.

With the help of Delta, Salt Lake City representatives and Keyonte George, we unveiled a newly renovated basketball court at Liberty Park! The project was initiated by Lance Lavizzo, a Salt Lake resident known organizing street basketball tournaments around the valley and the court mural done by Lindsay Huss – an Ogden-based artist! Thank you to everyone who made this possible! #CommunityObsessed | Delta Air Lines
