You know in the movies when the nerdy ugly kids miraculously transform into the hot, cool kids that everyone wants to be friends with? Don’t look now, but the Utah Jazz are becoming that kid. After years and years of being under-publicized and overlooked, typical occurrences in the NBA ‘small market’ world, the Jazz are cool again.
The NBA announced it’s first slate of opening games yesterday afternoon, and they couldn’t go without putting the Jazz on national display for the world to see. The Jazz will take on the defending champion Golden State Warriors in Salt Lake City during NBA opening week, and like the kids say, it’s gonna be lit.
