The Utah Eagles were a basketball team in the Continental Basketball Association . They played their games in Taylorsville, Utah , and although they started play in the 2006-2007 season, they folded in mid-season.

The Eagles played their home games at the Lifetime Activities Center on the Redwood Campus of Salt Lake Community College - the same Gymnasium used for the NBA 's annual Rocky Mountain Revue .

The team's roster featured a number of players with local ties, including Harold Arceneaux , a former Weber State player, Bryant Markson, a former University Of Utah player and Mike Hall, a former BYU player. John Millsap, the younger brother of Utah Jazz rookie Paul Millsap , also played for the Eagles.

Utah won its first ever game, beating Minot SkyRockets 134-120, on December 2, 2006 . It finished its maiden season with a 6-16 record, then folded on January 23, 2007. Although the CBA was able to reschedule the remaining opponents' games so that all franchises would finish a 48-game schedule, two games could not be rescheduled and were deemed forfeits by league mandate. Those two losses meant the Eagles finished with a 6-18 record.
