Utah Jazz History

The Utah Jazz joined the NBA in 1974 as an expansion franchise in New Orleans. They quickly traded for a local favorite, point guard "Pistol" Pete Maravich, who went to college at Louisiana State. Maravich had an entertaining style of playing and won the NBA scoring title in the 1976–77 season.

Logistical issues plagued the team in New Orleans, where the franchise spent only five years, never finishing with a winning record. The Jazz moved to Utah for the 1979–80 season, and they qualified for the playoffs for the first time in 1983–84.

The season after their first playoff berth, the Jazz selected point guard John Stockton with the No. 16 pick in the NBA Draft. The following year, they selected forward Karl Malone with the No. 13 pick. They became one of the best duos in NBA history and anchored the most successful period in franchise history.

The Jazz qualified for the playoffs in 20 consecutive seasons and won 50 or more regular season games in 11 of those seasons. Malone won the NBA MVP Award twice, in 1997 and 1999, and Stockton broke Magic Johnson's career assist record in 1995. He finished his career with 15,806 assists, a record that still stands.

The Jazz advanced to the NBA Finals in back-to-back seasons in 1996–97 and 1997–98, but they faced Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls both times. The Bulls beat them in six games each year. Utah has not been back to the finals since, but they’ve maintained a consistent level of success. They have missed the playoffs just nine times in the last 35 years.

Utah Jazz at Delta Center

Delta Center (formerly Vivint Arena) has gone through several different names, but it has been the home of the Utah Jazz since it opened in 1991. The arena has hosted several notable events, including the U.S. Figure Skating Championships and the 2002 Winter Olympics.

The exterior of the arena features statues of point guard John Stockton and forward Karl Malone, who are widely considered the two best players in Jazz franchise history. Stockton spent his entire 19-year career in Utah, while Malone spent 18 years with the Jazz.

    by Brandini on 3/3/23Vivint Arena - Salt Lake City

    Beer is ridiculously overpriced, line for j dawgs is confusing, and people coughing all around me. Didn’t feel safe. Overall not a good look. Also your bag check seemed sketchy

    Good

    by EY on 2/8/23Vivint Arena - Salt Lake City

    It was a decent experience. We had a group of 8, and was lucky to get 8 seats in a row. It was a low energy game though, and we lost

    Jumbotron

    by Keu on 1/26/23Vivint Arena - Salt Lake City

    How could you let the Jumbotron not be working on any day let alone the day I go to the jazz game. I mean give me a break. I need those instant replays right in front of me. Anyway the game was great just upset about the technology.

    Go Jazz!!

    by Karen on 1/22/23Vivint Arena - Salt Lake City

    From the minute we walked in the Vivint Center it was a great experience. Everyone was helpful, and so kind. With our tickets on my wallet it made it so easy to get in the game with no hassles. It made it even better that the Jazz won. Overall it was a great time!!

    Nail biting excitement

    by T. B. on 1/17/23Vivint Arena - Salt Lake City

    We saw the Jazz play the 76ers in Salt Lake City. It was amazing! So exciting-although the Jazz lost by one. We had mid to low range tickets (row 20, portal X) but could still see all the action. The $ is totally worth it to be up close to some of the best players in the NBA. A must for anyone visiting SLC or surrounding ski fields during the season

    So much fun!

    by Gammy on 1/9/23Vivint Arena - Salt Lake City

    We don’t go to many games. I gave the tickets to my husband for our anniversary. Our seats were high up but with the Jumbotron we were able to see everything. The game was so exciting until the very end!
