These teams both played on Christmas Day. The Jazz were in the last game of the day and laid a smack down on Portland. Perhaps they are turning things around for the 18th time this season.
Philly lost in overtime at Boston. The loss was disappointing but it does not mean they are not one of the better teams in the Eastern Conference.
Philadelphia 76ers
The 76ers have a very nice nucleus and some high expectations but the reality is that they are probably going to finish third, fourth, or fifth in the conference. They lost at Boston on Christmas Day.

It was probably the game of the day as it went to overtime but in the end it also showed some weakness in the team. Essentially that Ben Simmons is not a good enough shooter, at least for someone who has the ball as much as he does.
The loss also showed the lack of depth on the 76ers. Even though the game went to overtime no player off the bench scored more than 5 points.

There is no argument that having Jimmy Butler makes this team stronger but they sacrificed their depth to get him and now they need somebody to really step up.
Coming off a loss and heading West to take on a Utah team that should be feeling good about themselves is going to be a test of this team’s resolve.
Utah Jazz
Utah beat Portland with ease on Christmas Day and there is still a lot of time left to show they are more that team than they the one that has struggled through the first third of the season. If they follow up that performance with a win here they will definitely get some more attention.
In the win they had 7 players score 10 or more and that is probably the best strategy for this team to have success. Donovan Mitchell is a really nice young player but expecting him to bail out every possession is not going to work. They have players who have underperformed in support roles that need to step up.

Utah has one of the keys in being competitive with Philly in Rudy Gobert and they have a nice foil for Simmons in Derrick Favors. Those two mathcups often tell the story. If the Jazz split on them they can win, if they win both, it might look like things did against Portland.

Free Philadelphia 76ers vs. Utah Jazz NBA Prediction:
Philly is a good team and kind of a public team so they might be small favourites coming into this one. Either way the line won’t be much.
As long as it is within a single possession I will be strongly backing the home team. I like the situation a lot.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: No line currently posted.
Being at home and feeling good is perfect this time of year. Philly goes cross country with questions. Utah is not the place to sort them out.
