Match Preview

Utah is 3-0 in the preseason, with the previous win coming in Dallas against the Mavs, 107-102. They were up all the time, not allowing the Mavs to endanger them or to take control of the pace on the floor.

Sure, Luka didn’t play for the Mavs, but that can’t diminish this win. Lauri Markkanen scored 26 points in 29 minutes, while Keyonte George scored 14 in 17 minutes.

Spurs have a win and a defeat in the preseason. After losing to the Thunder at home, 112-107, they would beat the Orlando Magic, 107-97. The last period was decisive here, with the Spurs outscoring the rivals 28-18.

Wembanyama had only 11 points and nine boards, missing all five of his three-point attempts and shooting terribly, 4-for-15. However, the team’s 27 assists in this one prove that the Spurs play smart basketball, and that’s purely because Chris Paul organizes the game.

Jazz vs. Spurs Head-to-Head

In three events played last year, the Spurs won just one, while Utah posted two triumphs.

Jazz vs. Spurs Prediction

From what we saw in the previous events, Utah caught the groove early on, and they look like a serious team. Yes, the Spurs play at home, but we would still pick the Jazz to triumph here.
