Hey gang,
Jazz owner Larry Miller passed away yesterday afternoon after an eight-month battle with diabetes. He took over the team in 1985 and was pretty tight with many of the players. Covers mentions it in today's pick 'n' roll too.
Here's quote from point guard Deron Williams:
"Mr. Miller was a terrific man and friend. He changed the lives of thousands of people. We have all been blessed by his generosity and love for this community, and I am blessed to call him my friend. He gave us a lot of joy, and we will miss him."
On a related note, the Jazz practiced with everyone on the roster for the first time in months. Power forward Carlos Boozer was the big name back on the court but he's expected to practice at least once more before seeing any game action.
Might be a good spot to play the Jazz tonight in Salt Lake, giving 7.5 points to the Hornets.
Good luck everyone and may the winners be yours.
