A lot of fans think they know the Jazz because they watch Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert play, they see Quin Snyder coach, they hear Dennis Lindsey speak, and they’re aware of and appreciate Gail Miller sitting court-side as the team’s owner.
All of that is part of the picture, but not the full measure of it.
There are hundreds of people, some of them who do their work completely behind the scenes, who make up the Jazz mosaic — in offices, in team headquarters at the practice facility, at the arena, in the aisles, in the suites, in the kitchens, in the stat rooms, on the concourses, on duty and on watch in and through the bowels of the venue where the Jazz play.
