After five months off, the Utah Jazz tipped off their 2019 preseason schedule with a 133-81 victory over the NBL's Adelaide 36ers Saturday night in Salt Lake City.
"I thought we played the way we wanted to—guys were moving the ball and attacking," Utah head coach Quin Snyder said after the game. "I think, collectively, we started to defend a little better as the game went on."
Saturday night's game was perhaps most notable for who didn't play for the Jazz—starters Rudy Gobert, Donovan Mitchell and Mike Conley (all resting), as well as guards Emmanuel Mudiay (also resting) and Danté Exum (knee).
