After four straight years of going to the lottery, the Utah Jazz’s triumphant return to the postseason made for an exhilarating 2016-17. On more than a handful of occasions, the Jazz put up big plays and came away with some memorable wins.

With that being the case, it’s truly hard to pinpoint which of those moments were the best of the best, but there are five that I recall quite clearly that literally brought me up out of my seat and onto my feet, and those are the ones we’ll be taking a look at here.

Don’t get me wrong, these five were far from the only ones, especially for a TV-yelling, pillow-throwing, victory-dancing super fan (or as my wife might refer to me, a super crazy person), as several plays during the year got me jumping onto my feet.

However, although it was a tough decision, at the end of the day these five were my most memorable individual moments of the season. So go ahead sit back, relax and let’s enjoy some electrifying Jazz highlights.
