Utah Jazz (7-25) will host Miami Heat (17-15) on Thursday night at the Delta Center. This is the second time these two sides are squaring off in less than after meeting at the Kaseya Center on Saturday night. The Jazz are still struggling to find their rhythm this season, sitting at position 14, 21 games behind the Thunder in the Western Conference. They have lost their last five matches and have won only twice in the previous 10 assignments. The Jazz have their work cut out against the ambitious Miami, who are sixth in the Eastern Conference. The good news for them is that Miami has been inconsistent lately, losing five of their last 10 matches. Rumor has it that Butler is unhappy in Miami, which could create confusion in the squad. Still, they are the better side in this matchup.
