No more shuffling players back and forth between Salt Lake City and Boise, Idaho. The D-League affiliate of the Utah Jazz is now playing their ball in Utah as the Salt Lake City Stars. When it was announced last April, D-League president Malcolm Turner called the move “an example of the increased connectivity between NBA D-League teams and their NBA parent clubs.”
Despite some on-court struggles for the Stars, that connectivity has been one of several bright spots for the team in the early season.
In terms of wins and losses, it’s been a rough go for the team.
