The Utah Jazz returned to practice this afternoon as they will welcome in the Cleveland Cavaliers to EnergySolutions Arena Wednesday night at 7:00 PM. The Cleveland Cavaliers, of course are a star-studded team, as they have LeBron James, Kevin Love, and Kyrie Irving on their team. The Jazz are coming off of a loss on Monday night against the Los Angeles Clippers in a game where Chris Paul of the Clippers recorded the first triple-double of the season in the NBA.
The Jazz are getting great performances from Derrick Favors and Gordon Hayward early in the season. Try Burke has had flashes of great play, but is still playing with some inconsistency. Trevor Booker is a great player off the bench for this team. He is a solid sixth man and is averaging double figures in points.
At practice today the Jazz were preparing for tomorrow night’s game which will be tough due to the fact that LeBron James will be on the floor. His teams haven’t had the best success here in Salt Lake City, but LeBron James has had some great performances at EnergySolutions Arena. Expect another great game tomorrow night.
The media was able to catch up with Utah Jazz Head Coach Quin Snyder, Gordon Hayward, and Trevor Booker after practice this afternoon. All the talk was LeBron James and what they need to do Wednesday night to be successful.

The Utah Jazz are coming into the game with a record of 1-3. The Cleveland Cavaliers will be playing Wednesday night on a back-to-back after taking on the Portland Trail Blazers Tuesday night.
