*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, on Tuesday, January 31st. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Wednesday, February 1st.
Toronto Raptors
Whispers have shifted to blasts regarding the future of this team with Fred VanVleet, OG Anunoby, and Gary Trent Jr. in the spotlight.
Anunoby won’t be available to showcase his abilities as the terrible fall he took in Golden State will sideline him for the entirety of this road trip.
His absence proved costly in Phoenix as the Raptors had the lead but weren’t able to hang on and missed Anunoby’s presence especially late.
Several Suns he guarded in the prior meeting performed much better on the offensive end which speaks to his defensive prowess.
Stats
On offense, the Raptors score 112.8 points per game ranking 21st while shooting 45.3% from the field and 33.3% from the perimeter raning 27th and 28th respectively.
Defensively, the Raptors allow 112.3 points per game ranking 10th best with opponents shooting 49.0% from the field and 37.4% from deep ranking 28th and 29th respectively.
OG Anunoby (wrist) is out indefinitely. Otto Porter Jr (toe surgery) is shut down for the season.
Utah Jazz
The Jazz has leveled off from their hot start and while it would behoove Utah to go on an extended losing streak and join the tankers this roster refuses to concede.
Ironically while the Raptors trio discussed could push a contending team over the top the reality is Masai Ujiri isn’t going to give up any of them without a lucrative return and a team like the Jazz has a much better combination of assets and picks to offer.
The question is how long Danny Ainge envisions the rebuild taking and whether he would consider adding a player like the 25-year-old Anunoby now when the team could be years away from contending.
Stats
On the positive side, Utah averages the fourth most points per game with 117.5 and ranks 14th for shooting efficiency from the field – 47.3% and from the perimeter averaging 36.8% from deep ranking 11th.
Equally important, Jazz opponents score 116.3 points which rank 21st while shooting 48.1% from the field and 36.0% from deep ranking 26th and 18th.
Micah Potter (elbow) is out indefinitely.

Free Toronto Raptors vs. Utah Jazz NBA Prediction:
Executive Masai Ujiri was spotted walking with James Jones in Phoenix to no doubt discuss trade opportunities. Ujiri and Bobby Webster are traveling with the team and have told their counterparts no decisions will be made until the team is back in Toronto.
The duo will assess whether they should make drastic shifts now, wait for the offseason, be patient, or do what no one expects and make moves to address their own weaknesses (rim protection, shooting).
Toronto is 2-2 on the trip with stops remaining in Houston and Memphis so theoretically this match could decide the future of this roster. It’s never easy to win in Utah but I’m guessing the Raptors put it all on the line in order to convince Ujiri keeping them together is the better bet.
