Utah Jazz: KJZZ back on DirecTV

Published: Thursday, Feb. 12 2009 12:00 a.m. MST

The Jazz on Wednesday reached a retransmission rights agreement with DirecTV that allows the satellite provider to resume carrying KJZZ-TV programming.

That includes Jazz games scheduled on the independent station, beginning with the one played Wednesday night against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Six more games will be aired exclusively by KJZZ in the regular season, beginning with a Feb. 21 home contest against Chris Paul and the New Orleans Hornets.

No other details on the agreement were immediately made public.

KJZZ stopped allowing DirecTV to retransmit its programming last Jan. 1.
