Utah Jazz Coasters - Pistol Pete
“Pistol” Pete Maravich was traded to the New Orleans Jazz just as the franchise was moved to Utah. In New Orleans he formed his reputation for ball handling abilities, showmanship, and entertainment. He is considered to be one of the greatest creative offensive talents ever and one of the best ball handlers of all time. He was the franchise’s first star, but his time in Utah was oddly short due to injury. Bob Dylan after seeing Maravich play in New Orleans called him “the holy terror of the basketball world”, and a “magician of the court”. The Jazz retired his jersey in 1985.
