For the first time since 2008, the Utah Jazz are 3-0.
After securing wins over Oklahoma City, Sacramento, and Denver to begin the year, Utah begins one it most challenging stretches when it hits the road for six of its next seven games. The Jazz will be in Houston to play the Rockets (1-3) on Thursday night, with tipoff set for 6 p.m. MST.
Of those seven games, five of them come against teams expected to be in playoff contention later in the year–and all will come within an 11-day span.
It’s a tough stretch for any team in the league regardless of competition, but the Jazz are more equipped to handle a tough run like this compared to recent years.
