Friday's game featuring the LA Clippers and Utah Jazz at Vivint Arena in Salt Lake City will be a match between the walking wounded. LA lost the first of their three meetings this season and will be looking to even it against Utah. The Clippers have lost back-to-back games and five of their last seven games to fall to an even 36-36 record. They are…

The Los Angeles Lakers are nearing a coaching hire after firing Frank Vogel shortly after the regular season, and each of the three candidates represent a different path philosophically for the Lakers. Per Shams Charania of The Athletic, the Lakers have three finalists in Terry Stotts, Darvin Ham and Kenny Atkinson. The next step will be in-person…

SALT LAKE CITY - The crowd roared and bounced so enthusiastically that seats in the upper deck of the arena were shaking. The public address announcer had been crowing since the third quarter that the Jazz were about to win the game, urging the Utah fans to believe it too. With 23 seconds left in the fourth quarter and the Jazz up by 1 point,…

Cleveland • It's fair to say that former Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell is having a career-best season in his first year with the Cavaliers. After averaging 24 points per game in his five seasons in Utah, he's up to averaging 29.5 in his new uniform. He's become more efficient than ever before, shooting over 50% from the field and 42% from the 3-point…

It is both exciting and terrifying to say that we're about a month away from another season of Golden State Warriors basketball. The Dubs will kick things off on Oct. 19, when they visit the Los Angeles Lakers on the first night of the 2021-22 NBA season. And then we'll be off. Once the ball is tipped for that game, the Warriors will be on a quest…

The 2022-'23 NBA season is well underway as the winter months come soon. There will be many rumors involving trades and signings come December 15; however, most teams start separating themselves from the pack at this time. As this transition happens, organizations become more likely to make changes. Below, we look at several NBA coaches who are on…

The Utah Jazz and Brooklyn Nets will lock horns in a blockbuster NBA matchup at the Barclays Center on Monday (March 21). The Jazz will be playing on the second night of a back-to-back. They defeated the New York Knicks 108-92 in their previous outing. Meanwhile, the Nets are coming off a 128-123 win over the Portland Trail Blazers. Fixture: Utah…

The Phoenix Suns will head to the Vivint Arena for a Western Conference matchup against the Utah Jazz on Friday, Apr. 8.

The Denver Nuggets finished their 2021-22 regular season with a 48-34 record, good for…

The Warriors are in trouble, but perhaps not as much as the Jazz in the grand scheme of things. Get an update on news from around the NBA - both on and off the court - with our NBA notes from around this week's news. Welcome to another Finals edition of the NBA Betting Notebook. Today's NBA notes include the Boston Celtics bullying the diminutive…

One of the players I've enjoyed most to begin the season is Pacers rookie Bennedict Mathurin. He may not snag Rookie of the Year-barring injury, that seems likely to land with Orlando's Paolo Banchero, and deservedly so-but Mathurin often looks beyond his years as a scorer. The guard plays through contact in the paint and shoots better than 70%…

The Utah Jazz would be well served to assume the San Antonio Spurs won't back down from tonight's challenge. In the same breath, they'll be heavily favored to win tonight's game. After all, the Jazz (41-26) are in the thick of NBA title contention. Meanwhile, the Spurs (25-41) are competitive by organizational principle, but not in practice. With…

The Utah Jazz square off with the Chicago Bulls in tonight's action. It'll be the second consecutive game that sees the Jazz play an Eastern Conference contender. In their last contest, the Jazz (42-26) gave the defending champions a run for their money. They shot poorly vs the Milwaukee Bucks, and still only lost by 6. The Bulls (41-27) aren't…

series, which includes our Jazz-Mavericks prediction and pick. The Utah Jazz continue to defy the prevailing preseason consensus in the NBA. The prevalent line of thought connected to the Jazz before the regular season began was that this team would sink to the bottom of the NBA and not make the playoffs. Without Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell,…

The Denver Nuggets are the current betting favorite to win the 2023 NBA Northwest Division at -150 odds, but the Minnesota Timberwolves aren't far behind at+165 odds after they added three-time Defensive Player of the Year Rudy Gobert in a trade. Since the creation of the Northwest Division at the start of the 2004-05 season, the Minnesota…

As the clock was winding down in Game 6 of the Dallas Mavericks' first-round playoff series against the Utah Jazz in May, Dallas held a 98-96 lead as then-Jazz forward Bojan Bogdanovic pump-faked Spencer Dinwiddie to attempt a wide-open 3-pointer that could've forced a Game 7. Clank... Somehow, Bogdanovic missed the shot, and the Mavs advanced past…

The Northwest Division is a mixed bag. You've got the Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves, two teams with title aspirations (as lofty as those may be). On the other end of the spectrum, there's the Utah Jazz and Oklahoma City Thunder - bound for shameless "tankathon's" in pursuit of projected top picks Victor Wembanyama and Scoot…

The NBA's decision-makers respond to 50 different questions in the annual survey. In last season's NBA App GM Survey, the defending champion Milwaukee Bucks were not the favorite to repeat. Instead, the favorite was the Brooklyn Nets - the team that had just lost to the Bucks in Game 7 of the conference semifinals. This year, the Bucks lost in Game…

The Utah Jazz traded away All-Star center Rudy Gobert to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Interested teams, sensing a rebuild in Salt Lake City, inquired about the availability of Jazz star guard Donovan Mitchell. They were told to back off. But it was just GM speak. The phone lines were back open in short order. Jazz CEO Danny Ainge, who blew up and…

The Utah Jazz are preparing for a matchup with LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers tonight. On paper, that sounds like quite the task. In 2021-22, it's roughly as difficult as getting ready for the Minnesota Timberwolves. They share a record with the Lakers (21-22). It's been a remarkably disappointing season for the Lake Show. They've…

According to a report from Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium, the Cavaliers have signed Sharife Cooper to a training camp contract. Cooper spent most of the…

To say that the Utah Jazz will be tested tonight feels like an understatement. It might be more accurate to say that they'll be thoroughly examined. Any opponent is a challenge on the tail end of a back to back. The Golden State Warriors aren't just any opponent. By win percentage, the Warriors (27-7) are the best team in the National Basketball…
