Monday night, March 4th brings you a Western Conference NBA matchup as the New Orleans Pelicans travel to Salt Lake City to take on the Utah Jazz. Tip off is scheduled for 9:00 Eastern, live from the Vivint Smart Home Arena.
Utah has won three straight against the Pelicans, and eight of 10 overall, dating back to 2016. With the current state of New Orleans, another win here for Utah seems very likely, especially on their home court, where they have only lost 10 games all year.
New Orleans Pelicans
The Pelicans come into this game winners of three out of their last five games, and have won the past two straight road games as this current road trip comes to an end here in Salt Lake City, before they return home to face these same Utah Jazz once again on Wednesday night.

New Orleans currently sit 5.5 games out of the 8th and final playoff spot, but there’s not a person in the world who thinks they can make the push for the post season. If there were, they would sure as hell be playing Anthony Davis to his full extent, instead of resting him as much as they can get away with without getting fined by the league.
In their win over Denver Saturday night, the Pels shot 48.9% from the field, and a very impressive 40% from beyond the arc. They struggled as a team from the stripe though, hitting only 18 of 26 free throw attempts, coming in at 69.2%. Still, it was enough to walk away with a win at the 2nd place team in the conference.

In that game, Jrue Holiday had a game high 29 points for New Orleans, and Julius Randle had a double-double with 28 points and 10 rebounds. All in all, six Pelicans players were in double digits in scoring, including three off the bench.
Injury Report: SG Trevon Bluiett and PF Jason Smith are both listed as “out” for New Orleans on Monday.
Utah Jazz
The Jazz enter Monday winners of four straight, with wins over three straight playoff teams: Los Angeles Clippers, Denver Nuggets and the Milwaukee Bucks. Safe to say they should be able to handle the Pelicans no problem, but stranger things have happened before.
The Jazz sit in the 6th spot in the West coming out of the weekend, a full game behind the Houston Rockets, and two games ahead of the San Antonio Spurs, so a win here is pretty important for them if they want to keep pace with the rest of the division.

In their win over the Bucks Saturday night, the Jazz shot 45.8% from the field and 41.4% from three point land. They really missed the mark from the charity stripe though, making only 15 of their 26 free throw attempts. Shooting under 70% from the line is going to spell doom more often than not.
Donovan Mitchell had a game high 46 points in that win over Milwaukee, and Derrick Favors followed that up with a double-double, with 23 points and a game high 18 rebounds. Joe Ingles was the only other Utah player scoring in double figures with 14 points in 32 minutes.
Injury Report: PG Raul Neto is listed as “questionable” for Monday, while PG Dante Exum is listed as “out” for Utah.

Free New Orleans Pelicans vs. Utah Jazz NBA Prediction:
The Pelicans have shown that they can not only hang with good teams, but also take them down at the end of the game without the full time services of one Anthony Davis. But, I think their luck runs out here on Monday night.
Utah has a lot left to prove this season, and another win here on Monday night will go a long way in them proving their point that they are more than just a middle of the pack team in the Western Conference. Put them in a seven game series with any of the other playoff teams, and they will make their opponents lives hell.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Jazz -9
Take Utah to win this game at home Monday night. The Pelicans have played well on this road trip, but I don’t think they can sustain it for too much longer.
