Star rating: 4 out of 5
This year when they are away from home, the other team's starting PGs have averaged 1.1 threes per game (fewest in the NBA) against the Jazz, making this a hard matchup.. The Jazz have played at the 9th-slowest tempo in the league over the last 5 games at home, which should lead to decreased possessions for the 76ers.. Offensive rebounds continue possession and result in further chances for scoring and assists, but the 76ers rank 10thworst in in the NBA without the home court advantage with just 10.4 offensive boards per game over the last 10 games.

The Utah Jazz will likely see a spike in possessions today from sharing the court with the 7th-speediest pace-of-play offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (the 76ers).. Offensive rebounds save possession and lead to extra opportunities for scoring and assists, and the Jazz grade out 9th-best in in the league on their home court with 11.8 offensive boards per game this year.

Over his last 10 games, Devin Booker has averaged 30.3 points. In that span, he scored 28+ six times and finished with 27 twice more. He provided 27 points against the Milwaukee Bucks on March 10.

Milwaukee’s defense has been dreadful over the last 10 games, surrendering the fifth-most points (120.5), most three-pointers )16.9) and third-highest three-point percentage (39%), while sporting the 29th-ranked defensive rating (123.3). Booker should be motivated to get his team back on track after four straight losses, and I expect him to take advantage of this highly-favorable matchup at home.

The Brooklyn Nets have dropped six straight and now face the Sacramento Kings without their leading scorer, Michael Porter. The Kings have won and covered in five of the last six meetings between these teams, and I’ll roll with the Kings to cover.

The Toronto Raptors have won three of their last four games and are getting strong scoring production from Brandon Ingram. The Phoenix Suns enter on a four-game losing streak and continue to deal with injuries. Look for the Raps to sweep the season series.
