Time: 7:00 pm AZ (6:00 pm PT/9:00 pm ET)
Place: Talking Stick Resort Arena, Phoenix, AZ
TV: FSAZ, NBALP

The Jazz are coming off an upset victory over the defending NBA Champion Warriors. They have been playing really well as of late while we finally stopped our losing streak against the lowly Mavs. We're also coming off the emotional loss of PG Isaiah Canaan. I look forward to seeing ROY candidate Mitchell play as well as the play of our own rookie Josh Jackson who has played some of the best basketball of his career as of late.

Go Suns!!!

Len is out (ankle.) Ulis (back) is a game-time decision.

So I guess Bender will spend quite a bit of time at C tonight.

I hope he keeps his newfound aggressiveness up!

Bad start for Jackson so far. Playing too aggressive and taking ill-advised shots against Gobert.

Bender with the 3. He is playing center and taking Gobert away from the basket. This is his future in the NBA.

Bender with another 3. His demeanor on the court is so different today. He looks very engaged. Moving with a bit of verve even off ball and while setting screens.

The thing about basketball is... well it's that making shots is so important. We are doing that now and we look great.

I wouldn't be too upset if I never had to watch Dudley's fat ass waddle around on the court again.

I'm out at parades. Bender took 5 shots in 6 minutes?

Not a great start for Booker.

I don't know what is going on with Booker tonight. He just had the ball taken from him then he gave up on the play and didn't hustle back to contest the fastbreak.

Very interesting lineup in. Ulis/Booker/Jackson/Chriss/Bender.

I do like seeing Knight on the bench. Glad he is back with the team.

Another forced shot from Jackson. He hits this one though.

Why is Booker playing? He looks awful and he's hurt. Just sit him until he's better.
