The 2023–24 Utah Jazz season was the 50th season for the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA) and their 45th season in Utah. This also became their first season where they would begin to air their games on KJZZ-TV and KUTV alongside the Kiswe owned streaming service called Jazz+ instead of working with AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain (later known as SportsNet Rocky Mountain before shutting down by the end of 2023). During their first season under this change, the Jazz would see a 39% increase in viewership by comparison to the previous season under AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain. They failed to improve upon their 37–45 record from the previous year, suffering a second consecutive losing record, at 31–51.
Utah's January 17, 2024 matchup against the Golden State Warriors was postponed due to the death of Dejan Milojević, an assistant coach to Golden State. The game was later made up on February 15, 2024. On March 27, 2024, the Jazz were eliminated from playoff contention for the second straight season following a loss to the San Antonio Spurs and wins by the Golden State Warriors (over the Orlando Magic) and Houston Rockets (over the Oklahoma City Thunder).
The Utah Jazz drew an average home attendance of 18,206 in 41 home games in the 2023-24 NBA season. The total attendance was 746,446.

This became the first regular season where all the NBA teams competed in a mid-season tournament setting due to the implementation of the 2023 NBA In-Season Tournament.
This was the first regular season where all the NBA teams competed in a mid-season tournament setting due to the implementation of the 2023 NBA In-Season Tournament. During the in-season tournament period, the Jazz competed in Group A of the Western Conference, which included the Memphis Grizzlies, the Phoenix Suns, the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Portland Trail Blazers. While the Jazz got off to a promising start as underdog contenders for Group A following their wins over the Grizzlies and Trail Blazers, a close loss to the Suns and a blowout loss to the Lakers mathematically eliminated the Jazz from In-Season Tournament contention.
