SALT LAKE CITY — Following the Utah Jazz’s practice on Monday afternoon, a good deal of discussion centered around the difficulty of the team’s upcoming five-game road trip as a whole.
After all, the second, third, fourth and fifth contests are against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Boston Celtics, Houston Rockets and Oklahoma City Thunder, meaning the next week will almost certainly prove to be among Utah’s most challenging stretches of the season.
