The Blazers pulled off a stunning upset, defeating the 25-win Spurs, second in the conference, 115-110 on Saturday. That victory followed an equally convincing 122-109 win over the Pelicans, also on the road, and Portland couldn't be in better form heading into an upcoming 10-game series, eight of which will be played at the Moda Center.

Deni Avdija, who recorded a triple-double with 29 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists, largely contributed to the Blazers' latest victory. Clingan also played a crucial role, scoring the Blazers' first 11 points on Saturday against a Spurs team that never led by more than three points. The Blazers withstood San Antonio's late surge with a 12-point run between the third and fourth quarters.

That same day, the Utah Jazz, the Blazers' next opponent, lost 114-123 at the Chase Center against the Warriors. They lost despite Markkanen's 35-point contribution. It's Utah's third consecutive loss, having already played and lost twice in January 2026.

Our Portland Trail Blazers vs Utah Jazz Prediction

The recent games between the Blazers and Jazz have been very close, with three of their last four encounters decided by just two points, and the exception going to overtime.

Recent reports suggest that Jrue Holiday, sidelined with an injury for the Blazers since November 14, will still not be ready to play on Monday. It could very well be a game with many lead changes; the Jazz's ATS record this season is 20-14.

Our prediction for Trail Blazers vs Jazz is: Jazz +5.5.

Prediction:

 

Jazz +5.5.
