The Salt Lake City Summer League will be back for an 11th year this July, the Jazz announced today in a press release. Games will be played on July 4, 6, and 7 at the Jon M. Huntsman Center on the University of Utah’s campus, since the Jazz’s own arena, the Delta Center, will be closed for renovations.
The four-team, six-game event will feature three of the same clubs as it did in 2025, with the Thunder and Grizzlies returning to Utah along with the Jazz. They’ll be joined this time around by the Hawks rather than the Sixers.
The Salt Lake City Summer League takes place annually before the Las Vegas Summer League, which features all 30 teams and will run from July 9-19 this year. While the Utah event is typically overshadowed by the Vegas games that follow, it represents the first professional showcase for a handful of NBA rookies.
Even though Oklahoma City and Atlanta made the playoffs this season, both teams control other clubs’ lottery picks and possess multiple first-rounders in the 2026 draft. That means as many as four ’26 lottery picks and seven total first-rounders could be in action at the SLC Summer League this July.
