Smart Game Analysis
San Antonio Spurs has a 84% chance of winning the game
The rested Spurs are heavily favored to extend their win streak against a fatigued Jazz squad that lacks the interior defense to contain Victor Wembanyama.
Key Analysis
- • Utah is playing on the second night of a back-to-back after traveling from Salt Lake City, creating a significant rest disadvantage.
- • The season-ending injury to Walker Kessler leaves the Jazz without a rim protector to match up against Victor Wembanyama.
- • San Antonio's defense ranks 7th in the league, while Utah has surrendered an average of 134.4 points over their last five games.
- • The Spurs are riding a five-game winning streak, including a dominant 15-point victory over the Thunder on Christmas Day.
- • San Antonio outscores opponents by an average of 7.1 points per game, whereas Utah holds a losing record on the road.
- • To pull off an upset, the Jazz must rely on outlier three-point shooting from Lauri Markkanen and Keyonte George to overcome their defensive lapses.
