END OF AN ERA? JAZZ OWNER DENIES REPORT OF TEAM ON BLOCK

          Jazz Owner Larry Miller disputed a report by Frank
     Hughes on ESPN.com that had him selling the franchise to UT
     billionaire industrialist Jon Huntsman, "perhaps as soon as
     in two years" (ESPN.com, 12/10).  Miller: "There's zero
     substance in the story.  The guy who wrote it is
     irresponsible.  I don't know where it comes from."  Hughes
     responded, "I talked to three people, all of whom I trust. 
     I guess in a couple years we'll find out if it's the case or
     not."  Miller said that he "talks regularly" with Huntsman,
     but they "have never discussed" a deal.  Miller said that if
     he ever sold the team, he would "feel obligated to give" one
     of his sons a chance to run it (DESERET NEWS, 12/11).
