Utah Jazz information, The Utah Jazz began as the New Orleans Jazz in 1974, and then struggled through a decade at the bottom before emerging as perennial contenders in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Utah reached the playoffs in 2007 and 2008 but failed to capitalize in the later rounds.
The Jazz completed the 2009 regular season with a 48-34 record and lost to the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round of the playoffs.

If they keep him along with power forward Paul Millsap, it is likely that the Jazz will be over the luxury tax for the first time in franchise history.
