Utah Jazz Preview
The Jazz have slipped down the Western Conference as the regular season draws to a close. With dismal showings on their ongoing road trip, the fifth-place Jazz could slip to another spot, as Denver sits only half a game behind in sixth.
A large part of the Jazz's struggles could be attributed to the absence of their starting forward Bojan Bogdanovic. Utah has won three of eight games without the forward.
Additionally, Utah may also be without Rudy Gobert for this game. While he has been listed as questionable because of a leg contusion, Gobert's absence could impact the Jazz's rebounding effort and rim protection.
While it is unlikely Donovan Mitchell and Mike Conley could have a poor shooting night against the Clippers, the absence of key players could be telling.
Utah Jazz Predicted Lineup
G - Mike Conley | G - Donovan Mitchell | F - Royce O'Neale | F - Eric Paschall | C - Juancho Hernangomez.
LA Clippers Preview
The LA Clippers have struggled massively in their last few outings. While they are eighth in the West, the Clippers need to end their losing skid.
Attributing their losses to a lack of superstars is pointless. That's because they have played without Paul George and Kawhi Leonard for large swathes of the season. However, they have fared rather poorly in offense.
However, there is some good news for the Clippers. Their superstar Paul George went through 5-on-5 practice and has been upgraded to questionable against the Jazz. After suffering an elbow injury in December, George will look to make a return to the side to see them through to the play-In tournament.
LA Clippers Predicted Lineup
G - Reggie Jackson | G - Amir Coffey | F - Marcus Morris Sr. | F - Nicolas Batum | C - Ivica Zubac
