The Full Utah Jazz Schedule for 2026-27, Game by Game

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, which is expected. The December gap is harder to explain away and more likely reflects games that simply haven’t had tickets listed yet rather than an actual off week.

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, and New York, closing at Madison Square Garden the Wednesday before Christmas. 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 in an unusual way: Utah hosts L.A. once, on Oct. 25, then travels to Crypto.com Arena twice — Nov. 18 and again just five days later on Nov. 23. Playing the same road opponent twice within a single week is rare outside of a back-to-back road-and-home pairing, and it means the Jazz will have seen the Lakers’ current form up close three separate times before Thanksgiving even arrives.

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 on the available listings. Utah’s Nov. 17 trip to the L.A. Clippers and Dec. 1 visit to Golden State are both slated for NBC, along with a Jan. 19 road game at Denver. Houston’s Feb. 9 visit to Delta Center is set for NBC as well, and the Feb. 3 road trip to Houston is currently listed on ESPN. Washington’s Feb. 27 visit to Salt Lake City rounds out the confirmed national windows on Prime Video.
