Posted: 12:27 PM- Utah Jazz players, coaches and staff declined to comment before Wednesday morning's practice on reports of an alleged incident at the Portland-area hotel at which the Jazz were staying last weekend.
The team did, however issue a statement: "There is an ongoing investigation by the Portland police department concerning the Utah Jazz. The players and staff of the Utah Jazz are fully cooperating with investigators. At this time, the team has no further comment."
The names of players questioned by Portland police are not known. An incident allegedly took place at the Rover-Place Hotel, where the Jazz stayed Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights prior to Monday's exhibition game against the Trail Blazers.
The Jazz play their final exhibition game Thursday night against Indiana.
