The Los Angeles Lakers (11-4) visit the Utah Jazz (5-10) in an NBA 2025-26 game on Sunday, November 23, at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City.

The Lakers ride a three-game winning streak into this rematch after routing the Jazz, 140-126, earlier this week. The win was powered by Luka Doncic’s 37 points and 10 assists, along with a strong all-around effort from a now-healthy roster.

Of course, the spotlight in that game shone on the returning LeBron James, who finally made his season debut. He was already in good form, tallying a double-double performance of 11 points and 12 assists. 

LeBron's presence adds another playmaking hub for a Lakers offense that already ranks inside the Top 10 in offensive rating.

Meanwhile, the Jazz are coming off a 144-112 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. They actually paced the game early, putting up a 44-point first quarter. But the Thunder clapped back by flexing their defense, holding the Jazz to below 25 points in the following quarters.

The Jazz will continue to miss the services of starting big man Walker Kessler, who is out for the remainder of the season. On the other end, the Lakers don't have names listed on their injury report.

Our Los Angeles Lakers vs Utah Jazz Prediction

After a convincing home victory over these same Jazz, the Lakers look like the more stable and balanced team on both ends. LeBron James's return certainly boosts the morale of the team, as they chase the top seed in the stacked Western Conference.

Meanwhile, Utah’s recent defensive lapses, turnover issues, and shorthanded frontcourt make it difficult to trust them to keep pace for four quarters. Our prediction for the Utah Jazz vs Los Angeles Lakers match is: Lakers (-9.5) cover the spread.
