The Houston Rockets are back home, where they will entertain the Utah Jazz, hoping to return to winning ways in the NBA. They enter this game as the Western Conference’s fourth seed and with a 17-game advantage over their 13th-placed visitors. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
The Rockets are back home after a short two-game road trip in the East to resume their season after the All-Star break. Ime Udoka’s men were victorious in Charlotte before a narrow 108-106 loss to the Knicks.
They have now lost four of their last seven games and are in desperate need of a spark to avoid losing their top-four standing in the West. The Rockets, who won the first meeting with the Jazz back in November, are just 0.5 games ahead of their closest challengers for fourth.
The Jazz do not have the same problems as the Rockets in terms of playoff standing. Will Hardy’s men have been one of the whipping boys in the West, and with 39 losses thus far, have the third-worst record.
They are 10 games off the play-in places and have lost 21 of 28 away fixtures. Though they won at home in the most recent meeting with the Rockets, the Jazz do not look equipped for a win in Houston.
Currently on a two-game skid, Utah returned after All-Star weekend against the Grizzlies and lost 123-114.
