The 2026–27 Utah Jazz season will be the 53rd season for the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA) and its 48th season in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Jazz entered this season with the #2 pick in the draft, which would be the highest draft selection in years alongside it being the final time where the NBA would utilize the draft lottery system they had at the time since the NBA looked to seriously discourage teams from tanking for higher draft picks by end of the previous season.
Draft picks
Round Pick Player Position Nationality College 1 2 Darryn Peterson PG/SG United States Kansas The Jazz entered the draft holding one first-round selection, which landed 2nd overall—their highest draft spot since matching that position in 1980. They had traded their second-round pick to the Minnesota Timberwolves as part of the 2023 Mike Conley three-team trade, and was ultimately used by the San Antonio Spurs in the draft.
