Utah Jazz history
The club began as the New Orleans Jazz, an expansion team, in 1974-75. Pete Maravich was its star and won the scoring title in 1976-77. The Jazz never had a winning season in New Orleans. On 8 June 1979 the franchise moved to Salt Lake City and kept its name.
Utah drafted John Stockton 16th in 1984 and Karl Malone 13th a year later. Jerry Sloan replaced Frank Layden as coach in 1988 and held the job until 2011. The team left the Salt Palace for the Delta Center in 1991. Utah reached the Finals in 1997 and 1998. Chicago won both.
Both stars left in 2003. Ryan Smith bought the club from the Miller family in 2020. The Jazz had the league’s best regular-season record in 2020-21, at 52-20. They traded Donovan Mitchell to Cleveland and Rudy Gobert to Minnesota in 2022 and took a long list of future draft picks back in the two deals. They missed the playoffs in each of the next four seasons under coach Will Hardy.
Most famous player: Karl Malone
Karl Malone, taken 13th in 1985, played 18 seasons in Utah and was MVP in 1997 and 1999. He leads the Jazz in points and rebounds, and his No. 32 was retired on 23 March 2006.
John Stockton, his pick-and-roll partner, holds the club records for assists, steals and games. He played all 19 of his seasons in Utah, and his No. 12 went to the rafters on 22 November 2004.
