Utah Jazz team up with athletes across the state to 'Lead Together' in the fight against discrimination

Whether you root for the Utah Jazz, Real Salt Lake, the University of Utah or BYU, here’s something we can all support: athletes and coaches representing Utah have joined forces, pledging to stand against discrimination, inequality, injustice, and racism in our state.

The “Lead Together” video features several high-profile athletes—including Utah Jazz stars Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert, Olympic skater Nathan Chen, pro golfer Tony Finau, and Utah Royals and World Cup stars Christen Press and Becky Sauerbrunn—and will be played at sporting venues all across Utah. But Utah Jazz officials said the video will only be the start of a long-term commitment to promote a community of inclusion and belonging—and they hoped it would help spark a conversation throughout the state.
