As winners of the West Region, SLC qualifies to compete in the Winter Showcase Tournament, the G League’s in-season tournament that will be played at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando from Dec. 19-22. 

The Stars enter the Winter Showcase Tournament as the No. 2 overall seed and will face the seventh-seeded Maine Celtics (9-5) in the quarterfinal round on Friday at 12:30 P.M. MT. The game will air live on ESPNU.

The annual Winter Showcase Tournament is a single-elimination, winner-take-all competition featuring the top eight teams in the league and the champion will receive a $100,000 prize.

The Stars, who own the league’s top offensive rating and are averaging 133.6 points per game, are led by Jazz two-way players Elijah Harkless, Oscar Tshiebwe, and John Tonje, along with NBA veteran big man Mo Bamba. In addition, Jazz roster players Walter Clayton Jr., Isaiah Collier, Taylor Hendricks, and Cody Williams have each spent time on assignment with the Stars thus far this season.
