Toronto @ Utah
Current Records: Toronto 26-37; Utah 45-18
What to Know
After three games on the road, the Utah Jazz are heading back home. They will square off against the Toronto Raptors at 10 p.m. ET this past Saturday at Vivint Smart Home Arena. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they’ll have plenty of motivation to get the ‘W.’
Utah has to be hurting after a devastating 121-100 defeat at the hands of the Phoenix Suns this past Friday. The Jazz were down 96-72 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. Shooting guard Joe Ingles had a pretty forgettable game, finishing with 12 points on 5-for-14 shooting in his 29 minutes on the court.
Meanwhile, Toronto came up short against the Denver Nuggets this past Thursday, falling 121-111. Despite the loss, Toronto got a solid performance out of center Khem Birch, who had 20 points in addition to eight boards.
Utah is expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten the Minnesota Timberwolves April 26 easily too and instead slipped up with a 105-104. In other words, don’t count Toronto out just yet.
