SALT LAKE CITY – The Utah Jazz will travel to Memphis on Saturday to face the Memphis Grizzlies in the final stop of a four-game road trip.
The Jazz are winless in their last three road appearances dropping two games to the New Orleans Pelicans before falling to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday.
Originally, the Jazz were scheduled to return home to face the Washington Wizards on Thursday night, but the Los Angeles wildfires forced the NBA to reschedule the game.

The Jazz own a record of 10-32, the worst in the Western Conference, and second-worst in the NBA overall.
Before opening their four-game road trip, the Jazz owned the fifth-worst record in the NBA, but recent winning streaks by the Pelicans, Charlotte Hornets, and Toronto Raptors have pushed the Jazz near the bottom of the league.
Veterans John Collins and Lauri Markkanen returned to the Jazz lineup on Wednesday, but the frontcourt duo combined for 39 points, 19 rebounds, and five made three-pointers in 123-114 loss.
