Utah Jazz Schedule 2026-27: Complete Dates, Times, TV and Key Matchups

Memphis opens it on the road October 21, and from there the Utah Jazz Schedule sends this team criss-crossing the country before settling into a heavy home stretch in the second half of the season. This version of the schedule comes from ticket-marketplace listings rather than the NBA’s own release, so a handful of dates are likely still missing.

What’s Included in This Utah Jazz Schedule

The available listings total 80 games — 40 at Delta Center, 40 on the road — two short of a full 82-game slate. Two conspicuous gaps show up in the listings: nothing between Dec. 3 and Dec. 12, and nothing between Feb. 17 and Feb. 25. The February gap lines up with the NBA’s All-Star break. The December gap is more likely games that simply haven’t had tickets listed yet.

2026-27 Utah Jazz Schedule Regular Season

A Brutal Four-City December Road Trip

Between Dec. 16 and Dec. 23, the Utah Jazz Schedule sends the team through four different Eastern time zone arenas in a single week:

• Chicago
• Boston
• Cleveland
• New York (Madison Square Garden)

That’s about as demanding a stretch as a December trip gets: four different buildings, four different opponents, no home games mixed in anywhere.

Three Meetings With the Lakers, Two of Them Days Apart

Utah Jazz vs Los Angeles Lakers 2026-27 happens three times, and the scheduling is lopsided:

• First utah jazz vs lakers home game: October 25 at Delta Center
• First lakers vs utah jazz road contest: November 18 at Crypto.com Arena
• Second lakers vs utah jazz road game: November 23 (just five days later)

Playing the same road opponent twice within a single week is rare, and it means the Jazz will have seen the Lakers’ current form up close three separate times before Thanksgiving.

A Home-Heavy Finish to the Season

Utah’s closing stretch leans noticeably toward Delta Center. Of the final nine games on the available schedule, six are at home, including matchups against Oklahoma City, New Orleans, and the L.A. Clippers in the season’s final two weeks. After a fall and winter loaded with cross-country travel, that home-heavy finish gives Utah a real chance to close strong in front of its own crowd.

National TV Games to Watch

A handful of Jazz games already carry national broadcast windows:

• Nov. 17 trip to the L.A. Clippers (NBC)
• Dec. 1 visit to Golden State (NBC)
• Jan. 19 road game at Denver
• Feb. 9 Houston visit to Delta Center (NBC)
• Feb. 3 road trip to Houston (ESPN)
• Feb. 27 Washington visit (Prime Video)
