The main rival of the Jazz in the fight for the best chances at a high draft pick New Orleans won several matches in a row, and Utah dropped to the last place in the Western Conference. The Jazzmen currently have a 14-44 overall win-loss record and are 1.5 wins away from the penultimate spot.
Utah is playing after the resumption of the regular season so far only on home court. Will Hardy's team started this stretch with a loss to Oklahoma (107:130), then unexpectedly outplayed Houston (124:115), and then had two consecutive misfires - from Portland (112:114) and Sacramento (101:118).
Minnesota Timberwolves
The Timberwolves will play a back-to-back game in Salt Lake City. Yesterday, the team played in Los Angeles against the Lakers and fell short against the team of LeBron James and Luka Doncic, 102:111. Terence Shannon unexpectedly became the most productive in Minnesota with 25 points. And Anthony Edwards scored unusually little - only 18 points for efficiency.
Thus, Minnesota did not take advantage of the chance to climb into the playoff zone. The Wolves are in eighth place in the Western Conference standings with a 32-28 record and are exactly one win behind the top-6.

Expert Betting Tips
Despite the back-to-back, Minnesota is the clear favorite for the upcoming matchup. First, the Timberwolves, unlike their opponent, have tournament motivation. Secondly, Chris Finch's team has a great statistical record against Utah in recent seasons. We believe that the odds on Minnesota are overrated here and bet on the guests. Also, we take the total under, considering that the Timberwolves have one of the best defenses in the current championship.
