After a tight loss on opening night to Memphis. Utah is hoping to build off the positives against the Golden State Warriors. Golden State were winners in their first game of the season defeating the Portland Trail Blazers (139-104). This upcoming game will be another great test for this young developing Jazz team. Although it’s these two teams’ first time meeting each other for the 2024-25 season, these sides have been in close contact all offseason. Trade talks between Warriors GM Mike Dunleavy Jr and Utah’s GM Danny Ainge were continuing all throughout the offseason for Utah’s star Lauri Markkanen but to no avail for Golden State.
