The wait is over! The NBA season has arrived.

The Utah Jazz start their 2021-22 campaign against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday night. Quin Snyder’s men look to build on their regular-season success from a season ago, when the Jazz had the best record in the league.

In the latest episode of the Tribune’s “How ‘Bout This Jazz” podcast, host/moderator Xoel Cardenas and Jazz beat reporters Andy Larsen and Eric Walden give you their Jazz season preview show. The guys give their thoughts on whether or not the Jazz should change things up on offense. Is it time for more “small ball”? Or if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it?

The trio also talk about Donovan Mitchell taking the next step to lead the Jazz to a title and what does that look like. Lastly, guys make some rapid-fire predictions, including who will have a breakout season, who might have a down season, and what will the Jazz’s regular season record be in 2021-22.
