Spurs vs Jazz Preview

Spurs have played as a balanced side in Orlando, with all their regular starters contributing to their wins. DeMar DeRozan though has been their talisman, leading the way for Spurs this season and specifically in the bubble. He is averaging 22.1 points per game in the 2019-20 season with 5.6 assists and 5.5 rebounds.

A win for Spurs will not be enough to finish on the 8th or 9th spot. They will finish on 8th spot if Blazers, Suns, and Grizzlies lose with Spurs winning. If they want to finish the 9th, then they must win and hope at least two sides lose their games.

Jazz might not push hard for a win but will look to provide playing time to the bench. The best output for Jazz has come from Donovan Mitchell. He scored 35 points in his last game with five 3-pointers against Denver Nuggets and also leading the side in terms of points.

However, if Mavs win against Spurs, Jazz might go full strength, in order to avoid Clippers in the 1st round of the playoffs.

For Spurs, it’s a must-win game, and they will go as favorites; the side has the momentum and the reason for a win in tonight’s game.
