So how much of the success is based on the Jazz and how much is tied to the lower tier teams they’ve beaten? Arguably it’s a bit of both.
In their last game, Utah defeated the Magic 109-96. In the match, Donovan Mitchell scored a team-high 32 points. Georges Niang (15), Bojan Bogdanovic (14), Emmanuel Mudiay (12), and Joe Ingles (11) were the other double-digit contributors.
On the season, Donovan Mitchell is the team leader in scoring (25.1) and steals (1.1) while Rudy Gobert tops the rebounding (14.2), field goal percent (67.5%) and blocks (1.9) while Joe Ingles is tops in assists (4.5).
Mike Conley has struggled to stay on the court this season and this pattern continues with a left hamstring strain which has him out yet again with no definitive timetable for return
New Orleans Pelicans
Since returning from injury Lonzo Ball has been on a terror scoring from all areas of the floor and displaying efficiency from deep with his restructured shooting from.
His growth is helping the overall performance of the Pelicans who’ve quietly won five of their last six games. In the most recent game, the Pels battled the Kings to the buzzer winning 117-115.
Ball led the team in scoring with 24 points adding 10 assists for a double-double and chipping in six rebounds. Derrick Favors also delivered a double-double of 13 points and 11 rebounds and cemented the win with a jarring screen at game end.
Jrue Holiday (19), JJ Redick (18), Brandon Ingram (16), and Josh Hart (16) each added double-figure scoring to provide a balanced scoring attack against Sacramento.
On the season, Brandon Ingram is the team leader in scoring (24.9), rebounds (6.8) and field goal percent (48.1%). Jrue Holiday leads assists (6.5) and steals (1.7) while Jaxson Hayes tops the block (1.9) category.
Jrue Holiday (elbow contusion) is questionable to play. Zion Williamson is practicing but no return date is set. Darius Miller (Achilles) is out for the season.

Free Utah Jazz vs. New Orleans Pelicans NBA Prediction:
As noted the Jazz recent success a combined result of improved chemistry and scheduling luck.
Even if they don’t underestimate New Orleans this game won’t offer an easy victory for Utah. The Pelicans have size are moving the ball well and using balanced scoring to win games.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Pelicans plus points
I like the Pelicans to keep up their current hot streak and not only cover but net the victory. The one caution is if Holiday can’t go in which case I still like the Pels to cover but the winner will be less certain.
