2023–24 season schedule |
In-Season Tournament
This will be the first regular season where all the NBA teams will compete in a mid-season tournament setting due to the implementation of the 2023 NBA In-Season Tournament.[2][4] During the in-season tournament period, the Jazz will compete in Group A of the Western Conference, which will include the Memphis Grizzlies, the Phoenix Suns, the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Portland Trail Blazers. While the Jazz got off to a promising start as underdog contenders for Group A following their wins over the Grizzlies and Trail Blazers, a close loss to the Suns and a blowout loss to the Lakers mathematically eliminated the Jazz from In-Season Tournament contention.
