The Jazz and Suns enter this contest with very different motivations. Utah is looking to jump up in the standings enough to earn home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs, while Phoenix wants nothing more than to improve lottery positioning.
Ahead of this game, the Jazz have gone .500 over their last 10 overall, but they’re also currently only a two-game losing streak.
Phoenix, on the other hand, won its last outing. This team is also 5-5 over its last 10 overall.
These two tip off in Phoenix at 10:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday.
Utah Jazz
The Jazz enter this contest as the No. 20 scoring team in the NBA. They are posting 109.9 points per game.
The catch is that, while this team used to be a slow, methodical team with an efficient offense, the efficiency aspect of their scoring has decreased this season.
On the year, the Jazz are just 18th in points scored per 100 possessions (Offensive Efficiency), scoring just 107 in that category.

Defensively, this team has a very different (earned) narrative surrounding them. They are elite on that end of the court.
So far this season, Utah is giving up 106.8 points per night. That number is good enough for fourth in the league.
When looking at advanced metrics, the Jazz are ranked No. 3 behind only the Indiana Pacers and Milwaukee Bucks—both residing in the Eastern Conference where they don’t have to face the likes of the Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets as often.
Throughout the 2018-19 campaign, the Jazz are giving up just 103.7 points per 100 possessions.

Free Utah Jazz vs. Phoenix Suns NBA Prediction: Jazz make sweet music in Phoenix.
Utah’s seven-point advantage via oddsmakers is both simultaneously reasonable and a stretch. The talent difference between these two teams is likely more than seven points on any given night, yet Utah’s slow pace and inefficient offense makes even a seven-point spread seem outside of what their scorers are capable of.
That said, if we focused more on the latter than the former, we’d be doing Utah’s defense a serious disservice.

If these were the Suns of old where their offense could win them games when their defense failed to show up, we’d have a different situation here altogether. But Phoenix’s offense isn’t even built to keep up with a team like Utah at this point.
Both offenses struggle, but the Jazz’s defense does enough work to get a low-scoring, convincing win straight up and against the spread.
