Jimmer Fredette is headed to the Energy Solutions Arena for the first time as an NBA player.

Jazz "fans" wouldn't be torn. People who live in Utah, and root for the Jazz sometimes might be. Fans root for their team, the team thats in the game. BYU isn't playing the Jazz, the Kings are.

Not to worry, Jimmer fans --- Our Utah Starmakers will somehow manage to help him have his best game as a pro, as they've done with countless average players over the years. It won't surprise me if he breaks out with at least 25 points and possibly More..
