The following is a medical update on Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler:

During Utah’s season-opening game versus Sacramento on Oct. 25, Walker Kessler sustained a ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) sprain in his left elbow. The injury was diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) testing after Kessler continued to play and experienced discomfort. Rest with non-contact activities has been recommended to accelerate his recovery process. He will be reevaluated in two weeks.

Walker Kessler Injury Update

The design of the highly anticipated uniform is an evolution of the popular purple mountain jersey from the 1996-2004 NBA seasons

The&nbsp; Jazz will debut the City Edition uniforms at Delta Center on Nov. 14 vs. Portland and the court on Dec. 18 vs. Brooklyn

The Utah Jazz City Edition uniforms are now on sale, and today, their City Edition court has also been revealed, introducing a new era of the team’s popular purple mountain design. The City Edition uniform is available for purchase at the Utah Jazz Team Store at Delta Center and online here, and at multiple retail locations licensed to sell NBA products.&nbsp;

The City Edition uniforms and court embrace the legacy purple of the Utah Jazz and take several cues from one of the most celebrated Jazz uniform designs of the past - the 1996-2004 purple mountain uniform. 

The uniform features a stepped-gradient profile of the majestic Wasatch Front mountain range. The mountains are depicted in cascading shades of color starting out light and building to a deep purple, beneath UTAH spelled out boldly on the chest of the jersey. The uniform also features a simplified, asymmetrical mountain range motif on the right side of the shorts in the cascading, gradient pattern, which is a design element borrowed from City Edition uniforms from previous seasons. Players’ last names are featured underneath their numbers on the back of the jersey.

The Jazz will debut the 2023-24 City Edition uniform during their In-Season Tournament home game at Delta Center on Nov. 14 against the Portland Trail Blazers.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The Utah Jazz City Edition court reflects similar design elements from the uniform. UTAH is boldly spelled out at center court, and&nbsp; the subtle tonal mountain range stretches the length of the court. The free throw lanes are painted purple, and the stepped-gradient design from the uniform is present on the baselines and sidelines. A white Utah Jazz 50th season logo is positioned within the purple paint on the sideline opposite from the team benches.&nbsp;

The Utah Jazz will play on the City Edition court for the first time on Dec. 18 vs. the Brooklyn Nets. The City Edition uniforms and court will be featured multiple times during home games at Delta Center. Some of the upcoming dates include:&nbsp;

The Utah Jazz City Edition jersey retails for US$130 and the shorts for US$90.&nbsp; The uniform is now available for sale online and at the Utah Jazz Team Store at Delta Center.

Individuals or groups interested in purchasing tickets to Utah Jazz games at Delta Center can visit www.utahjazz.com or call or text the ticketing office at 801-355-DUNK.

Media Note: Please find images of the Utah Jazz City Edition uniforms and court here.&nbsp;

Founded as the 18th member of the National Basketball Association (NBA) in 1974, and located in Salt Lake City since 1979, the Utah Jazz are committed to excellence as a team and in the community. On the court, the Jazz are the second-winningest team in the NBA over the last 30 years, having won nine division titles and two Western Conference championships along with 17 seasons of 50-plus wins, and are supported by one of the most passionate fan bases in all of sports. The Utah Jazz also operate the Junior Jazz program, the largest and longest-running youth basketball league in the NBA, featuring more than 60,000 players and an additional 13,000 volunteers who take part annually across six states.

On the heels of their June 2023 announcement that brought all 3.3M+ Utahns unencumbered access to Utah Jazz games, the Utah Jazz today announced their complete outer market broadcast territory that will deliver games to an additional three million potential fans across all of Idaho and Montana and parts of Oregon, Wyoming, and Washington. Starting Oct. 25 when the team opens their 2023-24 NBA season at Delta Center, more fans in these states will have greater access to watch the Jazz than ever before through the team’s widest array of broadcast offerings yet, ranging from local TV and the new Jazz+ streaming service to cable and satellite subscriptions.&nbsp;

“The Utah Jazz are all in on providing the best possible experiences to ensure that our fanbase feels immersed in every minute of the action - even when they are cheering on the team hundreds of miles away from Delta Center,” said Ryan Smith, chairman of Smith Entertainment Group and governor of the Utah Jazz. “Our broadcast strategy is an evolution.&nbsp; We deliberately designed our new approach so we can be nimble and form deals like these most recent outer market agreements that allow us to reach a wider base of fans through every available platform. It’s a great time to be a Jazz fan, and we are excited to reach six million potential fans across six states heading into our 50th season.”

As part of an enhanced agreement with Sinclair Broadcast Group – which owns and operates KJZZ – fans in southeastern Idaho and western Wyoming will now be able to watch Jazz games through a new KJZZ feed on fuboTV. The Utah Jazz are also opening access to Jazz+ in these markets, catering to fans who want 24/7 access to the team, both on and off the court, as well as the ability to watch broadcasts in Spanish.

Through a new deal with ROOT SPORTS, access to Jazz games for fans in Montana, as well as in most parts of Idaho, eastern Washington, and eastern Oregon, will continue in high definition through their ROOT SPORTS subscription, with games subject to ROOT SPORTS programming conflicts and game availability. ROOT SPORTS is available through nearly all TV providers in the regional market.

Fans in the team’s local broadcast footprint – which includes all 3.3 million plus Utahns as well as most fans who live in the remaining areas of Idaho and Wyoming that are within 150 miles of Delta Center – are able to watch Jazz games on local TV station KJZZ, channel 14, “The Home of the Utah Jazz,” via an over-the-air antenna or through local cable and satellite providers that carry KJZZ. They can also subscribe to Jazz+ to benefit from the convenience and flexibility of catching every minute of Utah Jazz action at home or on the go.

Fans in Utah, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington, and Wyoming can visit utahjazz.com/broadcast to identify all available viewing options by plugging in their zip code.
