The Jazz got to a hot start, going 10–3 in their first 13 games. However, they struggled massively down the road, as after that they tip-toed between .500 and below. They would go 27–42 in their final games, which led to them being eliminated from playoff contention for the first time since 2016 on April 6, 2023 following their loss to the Thunder and suffering their first losing season since the same year.[3]
This also ended a streak of six straight playoff appearances for the Jazz.
Draft
editThe Jazz had no selections in the 2022 draft. They owed their first-round pick to the Memphis Grizzlies.[4] However, the Jazz later acquired Ochai Agbaji (picked 14th that year) and Walker Kessler (picked 22nd that year) in off-season trades made by trading Donovan Mitchell to the Cleveland Cavaliers and Rudy Gobert to the Minnesota Timberwolves respectively.[5][6]
