Garett Bolles, an offensive tackle for the Denver Broncos and former standout for the Utah Utes, saw the Utah Jazz play the Golden State Warriors in the NBA.
Ex-Ute goes to the Jazz game
On Thursday, February 15, the Jazz and Warriors played at the Delta Centre in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Bolles was acknowledged in the first half of the match after attending.
The NFL lineman received a personalised jersey.
Before Bear, the Jazz mascot, launched the two footballs into the Delta Centre audience, Bolles also signed them.
Bolles was an exceptional athlete at Westlake High, Snow College, and the University of Utah prior to his tenure in the NFL.
Bolles was chosen by the Broncos with the 20th overall choice in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft.
The former Ute and the Broncos agreed to a four-year contract extension prior to the 2020 campaign. The value of Bolles’ contract was close to $70 million. Bolles has blossomed into a star offensive tackle for the Broncos after experiencing some early difficulties with penalties to begin his NFL career.
Last season, Bolles helped the Broncos to an 8-9 record after a slow start to the 2023 campaign.
The Jazz have now lost three straight games, most recently to the Los Angeles Lakers 138-122.
Before their loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday, the Warriors, on the other hand, had won five consecutive.
