Defeating Dallas Mavericks the last time around in an edge of the seat thriller Utah Jazz epitomised why they are slowly tottering their way towards earning the moniker of outright favourites for the conference title. After going on a 10 game winning spree, the side have ingrained in place another sublime set of results yet again with the four wins in a row hammering down their spot in 2nd place in the Western Conference.
And with first place being an improbable one to touch, the side will be looking to nail down their position in second place. They come into today’s encounter having tasted consummate success against Dallas Mavericks the last time around, a 112-107 which was a true testament to how endearing they have been this season.
Elsewhere, the 117-110 defeat to Denver Nuggets in their foregone outing saw Houston Rockets slip to 6th place in the points tally. The side have wavered in 2020 with the three defeats in ther last five encounters, form which doesn’t augur well for them as they look to touch the echelons of the Western Conference.
Probable Winner
Both the side’s form is not the only reason why he hosts are heavily touted to win this one. Huston Rockets will be massively depleted today given the spate of injuries to their worldclass performers, a narrative which will make it dire for them to get the better of an extradonaire Utah Jazz outfit in this one.
