Toronto Raptors vs. Utah Jazz Tickets

Although one team has been around approximately 20 years longer than the other, both the Utah Jazz and Toronto Raptors have histories within the league that should be noted. The Jazz were formed in 1974, while the Raptors were formed as an expansion team in 1995. The Utah Jazz (formerly New Orleans Jazz) is a team that's featured many notable players, such as Pete Maravich, Karl Malone, and John Stockton. The team had a dominance on the Western Conference for many years; however, always fell short to the Chicago Bulls in the NBA Finals. The Raptors were an expansion team that joined the league in the mid-90's. They initially did not achieve much success, but eventually would become a dominant team in the Eastern Conference and with the help of All-star Kawhi Leonard would win an NBA Championship in 2019.

Utah Jazz Legends

Utah has had its fair share of All-stars and legendary players, but the two that fans will always remember are Karl Malone and John Stockton. For much of the 90's, these two ran one of the best offenses in the league. Stockton led the league in assists every year, and Malone was a dominant big man on both ends of the court. Stockton's precision passing and pesky defense, along with Malone's low-post scoring and rebounding, helped mold Utah into the team that they were. Let's take a look at how the Jazz have played against the Raptors throughout the years.
