KJZZ-TV and Fox Sports Net Utah will share the local broadcast duties with each airing 40 games, respectively, during the regular season. All 80 local broadcasts on KJZZ-TV (22 home/18 away) and FSN Utah (17 home/23 away) will feature a half-hour pregame show as well as a half-hour postgame show. Nine of the FSN Utah games will also be produced in High Definition (HD).
The Jazz will also appear on national television 13 times over the course of the season, including two exclusive TNT games, along with four ESPN broadcasts and an additional seven games that will be simulcast on NBA TV.
"We are excited that all 82 regular season games will be televised for the third straight season, and are pleased to add four preseason games into the fold this year as well," said Utah Jazz president Randy Rigby. "The combination of KJZZ and FSN Utah continues to provide Jazz fans with a first-class broadcast experience."
