LA Clippers vs Utah Jazz preview

With the All-Star break approaching, some key players slated to participate in the festivities may be rested. Kawhi Leonard has already been ruled out due to injury management, and additional lineup changes could follow.

With Leonard, the Clippers rolled past the Ja Morant-less Grizzlies on Wednesday, securing their second straight win. Leonard led the way with 25 points, while new acquisition Bogdan Bogdanovic added seven points.

The Clippers focused on depth moves at the trade deadline, and with their wing depth, they should be well-positioned to capitalize against the Jazz.

The Jazz, meanwhile, relied on their scoring guards and strong frontcourt rotation to defeat the Lakers. Lauri Markkanen shined with 32 points, while John Collins and Walker Kessler combined for 33 points, 16 rebounds and eight blocks.

Their dominance in the paint helped offset the Lakers’ loss of starting center Jaxson Hayes, who exited early due to injury.

The Jazz remain competitive despite holding the second-worst record in the Western Conference. Role players like Jordan Clarkson (21 points) and sophomore guard Keyonte George (20 points off the bench) stepped up against the Lakers, proving they are a tough matchup despite their record.

Tonight’s game will likely be a battle of role players, as both teams boast deep rotations.
