Larry H Miller in Hosp

Get well soon!!

SALT LAKE CITY -- Utah Jazz owner Larry Miller has been hospitalized with health complications related to diabetes.

Jazz spokeswoman Linda Luchetti said doctors expect Miller to make a full recovery but as of Monday had set no timetable for his release.

She said she doesn't know when Miller was admitted to the hospital or which hospital he is in.

Luchetti says she spoke to Miller on the phone and "he's not skipped a beat."

In addition to the Jazz, Miller owns a string of auto dealerships, a land development company and the Salt Lake Bees, a minor-league baseball team.

Miller bought the Jazz outright during the 1986-87 NBA season

You can't hear stories like and not wonder how long until Larry retires and his son(s) take control of the team. For all my complaints over the years, Larry has done a tremendous job providing stability and success for the Jazz. Lets hope he's around a while longer, becasue you never know what junior will do with/to this franchise.

Yeah, for how big Larry H Miller is, especially compared to his height, he is in a really bad position for someone with diabetes.

We've all seen how seriously he takes all of his businesses and how emotionally invested he is in it all. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see him pass the Jazz on in the next few years so he can finally retire and enjoy his millions.
