Milwaukee Bucks
With 14 games remaining on their schedule the Bucks are ramping up their efforts to defend their NBA title. They’ll play the majority of games on the road (nine games).
Saturday they began a four-game West Coast swing featuring stops in San Francisco, Utah, Sacramento, and Minnesota. They lost to the Warriors so will be looking to get back on track versus the Jazz in a tough arena to win in.
Milwaukee had won six games in a row to pull into second place in the East, but the loss to the Dubs and Philly’s win versus Orlando has them deadlocked again with the 76ers currently holding the tiebreak edge (based on being the Division leader).
In the loss to Golden State, Giannis Antetokounmpo led the way with 31 points, eight rebounds, three assists, and a steal plus got to the line for 18 free throws.
Khris Middleton who had been playing well during the streak had a cold night shooting 6 of 19 for 18 points. The trio of Serge Ibaka (15), Jrue Holiday (13), and Grayson Allen (12) were the other double-figure contributors.
George Hill (neck) and Lindell Wigginton (ankle) are questionable for Monday. Pat Connaughton (finger), De’Andre Bembry (knee), and Brook Lopez (back) are out indefinitely.
Utah Jazz
Jordan Clarkson reminded fans why he won Sixth Man of the Year last season with his career-best 45 points versus the Kings. He shot an efficient 15 of 21 from the field, hit seven of his 13 attempted 3-points, and drained all eight free throws.
Bojan Bogdanovic also got to the line eight times helping him accumulate 26 points. Donovan Mitchell offered 25 points, five rebounds, six assists, and two steals but struggled from deep (1 of 6).
With Rudy Gobert sidelined due to a sore foot, Hassan Whiteside got the start posting a double-double of 12 points and 21 rebounds as well as three blocks.
Utah has 15 games remaining including this four-game homestand followed by a six-game road trip that starts in the East (New York, Brooklyn, Boston, Charlotte) prior to returning west to play the Clippers and Mavericks.
They reside in the fourth seed currently, 3.5 games back of the Warriors, a half-game up on the Mavericks, and 2.5 on the Nuggets. Seven of their remaining matches are against top-five seeds plus face current play-in seeds the Nets, Clippers (twice), Hornets, Lakers.
Mike Conley (rest), Rudy Gobert (foot), Trent Forrest (wrist), and Udoka Azubuike (ankle) are questionable for Monday versus the Bucks.

Free Milwaukee Bucks vs. Utah Jazz NBA Analysis:
Vivint Arena is a tough venue to play in given the altitude but Milwaukee is adept at playing away from home and if Rudy Gobert is out again it gives a decided advantage to the Bucks.
