Utah Jazz vs. New Zealand Breakers: Preview, start time, channel

It's here, it's finally here!

The Utah Jazz season begins tomorrow (October 4) against the New Zealand Breakers and it's about time. After endless trade rumors that amounted to little, the Utah Jazz started the season with a group of rookies mixed in with veterans. The question this preseason and regular season is how the lineups change from night to night. With a mix of goals this season including Lose games to get Cooper Flagg Player development, individual matchups and the rest: we will probably have a wide variety of starting lineups.

As for tomorrow, that is the biggest question. Here is my prediction for the starting lineup:

1. Keyonte George
2. Collin Sexton
3. Lauri Markkanen
4. Taylor Hendricks
5. Walker Kessler

Based on the Jazz's roster, this is probably their best possible lineup. It's nice that this group can start against the Breakers, giving them a chance to break through this lineup. It also gives George and Hendricks a chance to play with Sexton and Markkanen instead of players like Luka Samanic and Talen Horton-Tucker.

If they have a different starting lineup… forget all about it.
