The 2021-22 Utah Jazz squad has ‘potentially historic’ written all over it.
Had the 2020-21 regular season consisted of the typical 82 games per team, chances are the Utah Jazz would have flirted with the 60-win mark. This mark would’ve marked the first time they have reached that total since their back-to-back 60-plus efforts in 1996-97 and 1997-98.
As it was, though, the last Jazz collection finished 52-20 across its 72-game slate. Note that such a winning percentage would have equated to 59.2 wins across 82 games.
