Game notes
It's the fourth outing in a season-opening stretch with 4-of-5 at home for the Jazz, who won their only road game in that span 89-73 over the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday. ... Coach Jerry Sloan needs two more wins for No. 1,000 with the Jazz. ... The Trail Blazers will be without Raef LaFrentz (shoulder), Martell Webster (foot) and 2007 No. 1 overall draft choice Greg Oden — who missed all of last season due to microfracture knee surgery, and now has a sprained foot. ... The Jazz have lost 5-of-7 vs. the Blazers.
