| Player Notes |
| October 7, 2008 The AP reports that Carlos Boozer missed Tuesday night's preseason opener against the Los Angeles Lakers because of a sore hamstring. The All-Star said the injury was not serious. However, it is the same hamstring Boozer tore three years ago, limiting him to 33 games in the 2005-06 season. Just a little sore, Boozer told the Deseret News. So, Id rather be safe than sorry. |
| October 1, 2008 Forward Carlos Boozer doesn't want to make any contract decision until after the 2008-09 season. He is eligible to opt out of his current deal after this campaign. "We're gonna let (contract matters) slide, so it's ready to be dealt with in the summertime," Boozer tells the Deseret News. |
| September 16, 2008 Carlos Boozer may not be long for the Utah Jazz, as the team has no plans to move into the luxury-tax threshold, and he has an opt-out clause in his contract after the season, according to the Desert News. "We're going to have to make some very, very tough decisions next year," said Jazz owner Larry Miller. |

| May 17, 2008 Carlos Boozer notched a game-high 14 boards in Friday's 108-105 loss to the Lakers. He also tallied 12 points, two assists, and one steal. The Lakers won the series 4-2. |
| May 15, 2008 The Utah Jazz battled mightily, but in the end they couldn't match the effort of the Los Angeles Lakers, falling 111-104 to fall back 3-2 in their Western Conference semifinal series. Utah forward Carlos Boozer did his best, shooting 6-of-16 from the floor and 6-of-8 from the free-throw line to score 18 points with 12 total rebounds and two assists in the double-double effort. |
| May 11, 2008 Carlos Boozer scored 12 of his 14 points in the second half and grabbed 12 rebounds as the Utah Jazz beat the Los Angeles Lakers 123-115 on Sunday, tying the Western Conference semifinals at 2-2. |
| May 9, 2008 Carlos Boozer broke out of his slump with 27 points and tied his career playoff-high with 20 rebounds, leading the Utah Jazz to a 104-99 victory over Los Angeles on Friday night. |
| May 7, 2008 Carlos Boozer hasn't been himself during the playoffs. The power forward hasn't scored 20 points in six straight playoff games and has just two total blocked shots over that span. |
| April 29, 2008 The hope was to return back to Salt Lake City with a series victory and a date with the Los Angeles Lakers, but the Utah Jazz missed those opportunities by suffering a 95-69 loss to the Houston Rockets in Game 5 of their 1st-round playoff series, giving Houston life in a series that now sits in favor of the Jazz, 3-2.

| April 8, 2008 Deron Williams and Carlos Boozer failed to impress this evening, but the Jazz managed to prevail despite their struggles. Boozer went 5-of-14 from the floor and failed to garner a single foul, scoring just 10 points with six rebounds and one assist. Williams went just 2-of-11 from the floor, 0-of-2 from three-point land, and, like Boozer, failed to pull a single foul, scoring just FOUR points on the evening. On the bright side, Williams posted 16 assists, the lone stat not attached to Mehmet Okur worth mentioning. |
| March 30, 2008 Carlos Boozer led the Jazz with 25 points and 10 boards in a 110-103 loss to Minnesota on Sunday. He also chipped in three assists and a steal, and is averaging 28.2 points over his last four games. |
| March 29, 2008 Carlos Boozer and Deron Williams continue to show why they may be one of the more underrated tandem commodities in the NBA, Boozer scoring 34 points with a whopping 17 rebounds, matched only by Williams 32-point effort in Utahs 121-101 win over the struggling LA Clippers last night. The game, despite a lackluster opponent lined up across the hardwood, figured to be difficult with both Mehmet Okur and Ronnie Brewer sidelined with some kind of stomach virus, and Andrei Kirilenko left nine minutes into the game with calf spasms. That left Boozer and Williams to do work. Boozer responded in grand fashion, going 16-of-22 from the floor while Williams went an astounding 13-of-15, adding 10 assists to help them along. |
| March 22, 2008 Three of Utah's most promising stars joined forces, all posting double-double efforts, to lift the Utah Jazz over the Seattle SuperSonics, 115-101. Carlos Boozer scored 26 points with 9-of-16 from the field and 13 rebounds. Deron Williams posted 15 points, going just 5-of-11 from the field, with 14 assists. Last but not least, Mehmet Okur scored 24 points, going a surprising 8-of-17 from the field and 3-of-7 from three-point land, with 10 rebounds. |
| March 20, 2008 Carlos Boozer is expected to play Thursday night, according to the Salt Lake Tribune. He is expected to play after suffering a lower back strain against the Raptors. Boozer said, "It's been nagging for about two months and it finally pulled in the Toronto game." Boozer is averaging 21.4 points and 10.6 boards per game this season and would be a big boost for the Jazz to get him back tonight against the Lakers. |
| March 19, 2008 Carlos Boozer is expected to practice on Wednesday despite a strained muscle in his lower left back, the Deseret Morning News reports. He suffered the injury on Monday and received treatment on Tuesday. |

| March 17, 2008 Carlos Boozer led Utah to a 96-79 win over Toronto as he contributed 13 points, 10 rebounds, one assist, three steals, and one block. Boozer notably scored 41 points in his last outing on March 15 and followed that up nicely with another solid performance. |

| March 4, 2008 Carlos Boozer's back isn't 100 percent, but he doesn't intend to sit anytime soon. "It's alright," he said in the Deseret News. "I've got bumps and bruises, and definitely it's a little sore, but (I'm) playing through it." It goes without saying that Boozer should be in your lineup as long as he's standing upright. |
| March 3, 2008 Carlos Boozer scored 28 points and pulled down seven rebounds as Utah came from behind to beat Dallas on Monday night. Boozer continues to impress and Utah will be a team to contend with come playoff time in the Wild Wild West. |
| February 28, 2008 Carlos Boozer had a great game on the surface with 18 points and 15 boards as the Jazz beat the Pistons. However, Boozer turned the ball over six times on the night as he continued a month long trend of turning over the rock including three games in his last five outings where he has turned it over six times. |
| February 24, 2008 Carlos Boozer, playing through a lower back injury, had 21 points and 12 rebounds to help the Jazz hold defeat Atlanta 100-94 on Saturday night.

| February 22, 2008 Carlos Boozer was back in the mix for Thursday's practice after sitting out Wednesday's session with a sore lower back, according to the Deseret News. Although he admitted his back has been bothering him for a couple of weeks, Boozer said he'll play on Friday. |
| February 20, 2008 Carlos Boozer missed Wednesday's practice with a sore lower back. The Jazz are still determining his availability for Friday's game, according to the Salt Lake Tribune. Boozer has missed just one game all season, and we think there's a good chance he'll be on the floor come Friday night. |
| February 17, 2008 Carlos Boozer had 14 points and 10 rebounds for the West in the 2007-08 All-Star game. Boozer went 7-for-15 from the field and finished with zero assists, steals, blocks and turnovers. |
| February 13, 2008 Carlos Boozer scored 22 points, pulled down 11 rebounds and registered 10 assists in Wednesday's 112-93 victory over Seattle. It was Boozer's first triple-double. Boozer, who averages a double-double on the year, does it in just over 35 minutes per game. The fantasy monster is as consistent as they come. If he doesn't score he rebounds, if he doesn't crash the boards he scores -- but usually he does both. |
| February 9, 2008 Carlos Boozer had another ho hum outing with 22 points and 12 boards for the Jazz. Boozer is averaging 21.8 points and 10.8 boards a game a year after averaging 20.9 and 11.7. Though he has gone for 10 or more boards in five straight, he has failed to score 20 points in three of those games. |
