I wonder how much you know about the Jazz, friends. I’ll tell you what I knew before I started writing this piece, and let’s see how well it matches up to your expertise.
I knew that the Jazz started in New Orleans in 1974. That much seems obvious given the franchise name. I knew that the New Orleans Jazz famously employed “Pistol” Pete Maravich who led the league in scoring with over 30 points a game. I knew that the New Orleans Jazz had trouble financially and ended up moving to Salt Lake City, the former home of the ABA’s Utah Stars.
