The Utah Jazz (15-52) visit the Minnesota Timberwolves (39-29) on Sunday, March 16, 2025, at the Target Center.

The Wolves put their seven-game winning streak on the line against the Jazz. In that span, they've beaten the Phoenix Suns by 18 points and the Denver Nuggets by 20 points. During that seven-game stretch, Minnesota has increased their offensive rating to 125.7, a full 10-point increase from their season average of 115.5.

On the flip side, the Jazz is on an unforgiving stretch of eight straight losses. This team has the second-worst defensive rating in the league (119.3), which doesn't bode well against a Wolves team that is recently running a smooth offense.

Moreover, three key Jazz players in Jordan Clarkson, John Collins, and Keyonte George are sitting out in this game. These are their second, fourth, and fifth-best scorers.  

The Wolves did lose to the Jazz by one point in their recent February 28 match, but that was without their All-Star Anthony Edwards. In their first game on January 30, Edwards's 36-point and 11-assist performance led Minnesota to a 138-113 drubbing of Utah.

With no names listed on their injury report, the Wolves could run away with an easy win over the Jazz.

Minnesota Timberwolves - Utah Jazz Key Points

  1. The Timberwolves beat the Jazz by 25 points in their first game.
  2. The Jazz are missing Jordan Clarkson, John Collins, and Keyonte George due to injuries.
  3. The Timberwolves have increased their offensive rating to 125.7 in the last seven games.
  4. The Timberwolves don't have a single name listed on their injury report.

Our Minnesota Timberwolves vs Utah Jazz Prediction

With the Jazz missing three key players, this could be an easy game for the Timberwolves. They are on a roll on offense, with Edwards scoring at least 25 points in the last three games. Plus, the Wolves are coming to this game with their full arsenal of healthy players ready.

For the Jazz, they'll be relying more on Lauri Markkanen and Collin Sexton to pick up the pieces. However, that will be a tough ask, considering they'll be without Clarkson, Collins, and George. Our prediction for the Minnesota Timberwolves vs Utah Jazz match is: Timberwolves (-13.5) cover the spread.
