The Bulls are one of the biggest surprises in the NBA this season as they have now won eight in a row with three games in that string of wins being canceled due to health and safety protocols involving the COVID-19 pandemic. Utah goes into tomorrow night’s game in Toronto as a 7-point favorite, as the Jazz are 10-6 ATS on the road this season. Utah had a six-game losing streak ATS in December and snapped that as they were an 8-point favorite in a 120-105 win over Portland back on Dec. Utah is 19-19 ATS and the Jazz is quizzically 13-14 ATS after a win and 5-5 after a loss. Whiteside is second in rebounding at 6.6 per game while blocking 1.3 shots (2nd/Jazz). Adding Hasaan Whiteside was an excellent move by Jazz management to back up Gobert.
Gobert paces Utah on the glass as the Jazz are second in the Association with 47.3 boarded per night. Rudy Gobert continues to be a relentless presence in the middle with his 15.5 points and 15.1 rebounds per game. Utah also averages a league-leading 116.0 points per game behind 25.5 points per night from Donovan Mitchell, which is ninth in the Association. In that game, Devin Booker dropped 33 while Miles Bridges accounted for 23 points for the Suns. The Suns continue to match the Warriors and like Golden State, Phoenix is 8-3 over its last 11 contests and the Suns have won three of their last four after posting a 123-110 win over the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday evening. They are still 7-1 against the Pacific Division and 4-0 vs. All of those defensive numbers are league leaders and are a telling reason why Golden State continues to lead the NBA.Īs Golden State goes into New Orleans on Thursday evening, the Warriors are 3-3 against Southwest Division competition, easily the worst ledger of the season vs. In addition, teams only average 21.4 assists per game and they shoot only 49.6 percent and score 101.4 points per game. Defensively, the Warriors are allowing only 36.5 makes per game as well as holding the opponents to 42.5 percent from the floor. Thompson has not played since Game 6 of the 2019 NBA Finals where he injured an Achilles.
The Warriors await the return of Klay Thompson, who hasn’t played in almost two years as he has been saddled with injuries.
