Will Hardy leads Utah Jazz into new season with fresh additions, but much to prove
Hardy faces a reshaped roster after Utah finished 22-60 and missed the playoffs, with 7 departures and 6 additions.
- Following a 22-60 finish last year, Utah Jazz coach Will Hardy enters his fifth season aiming to guide the franchise toward postseason contention after 17 consecutive losing months.
- The Jazz struggled defensively last season, allowing opponents to consistently make shots from 30 feet out in an era when most NBA players can hit from distance.
- While roster departures included Walker Kessler and PF-C Kevin Love, Utah will build around Lauri Markkanen, Keyonte George, and rookie guard Darryn Peterson from Kansas.
- During an Oct game in Salt Lake City, the Jazz faced the San Antonio Spurs with Isaiah Collier and Jordan McLaughlin in the rotation.
- Competing in the Western Conference, the Jazz hold one of the NBA's second-worst records over four seasons, facing a steep climb to playoff relevance.
