Smart Game Analysis
Minnesota Timberwolves has a 82% chance of winning the game
The Timberwolves are poised to dominate a depleted, weary Jazz team on the second night of a back-to-back.
Key Analysis
- • Utah is severely handicapped by the confirmed absence of defensive anchor Walker Kessler and the likely absence of Lauri Markkanen.
- • Anthony Edwards has a massive scoring advantage coming off a 55-point performance against a Jazz defense allowing nearly 120 points per game.
- • Minnesota benefits from a significant rest advantage having not played since Saturday, while Utah played a grueling game yesterday.
- • The Timberwolves have already defeated the Jazz twice this season with a dominant average margin of victory.
- • Utah's defense has collapsed during their four-game losing streak, conceding an average of over 130 points in their last three outings.
- • The Jazz must get an outlier shooting performance from Keyonte George to remain competitive given their roster shortages.
