Prediction published on 3/2/24, 8:17 AM  by Tyler Doty | Modified on 4/2/24 at 11:14 AM in NBA Picks

The Jazz host the Cavaliers at the Delta Center. With a 29-46 record, including a current 9-game losing streak, Utah is going through a difficult period at the end of the season. Occupying 12th place in the West, the team seems to have given up its playoff hopes. It's likely that the Jazz will now focus on the draft and rebuilding for next season, leaving the team in an unfavorable position for the remainder of the current campaign. The losing streak and position in the standings show that the Jazz have already given up and are looking to the future.

The Cavaliers are having an exceptional season, buoyed by the sparkling performances of Donovan Mitchell. With an impressive 45-30 record, the team is currently in 3rd place in the Eastern Conference with just 3 weeks to go before the playoffs. Donovan Mitchell has been incredible all season long, propelling the Cavs to decisive victories. His leadership and talent on the court have clearly played a key role in Cleveland's success so far. The Cavaliers are in a good position for the playoffs, and with Mitchell in top form, they have a great chance to shine in the post-season.
