Los Angeles Clippers Team News
The Clippers, after a difficult last season where they were crippled by injuries to the main players, will try to reach the big NBA Finals for the first time this season. And they have capacity and quality.
However, this season they are playing below expectations. There is a lot to do with lack of play, but also with the problem of injuries again. Kawhi Leonard has major injury problems this season, and will not play in this match either. This season, coach Tyronn Lue added a couple of serious players to his roster. The recovered former All-Star John Wall arrived, and if he is healthy this season, he will be a big boost for the Clippers. A player who is capable of scoring 30+ points for everyone. In addition to Wall, the excellent Norman Powell and Bruce Brown also arrived. Two players who will bring a lot to the breadth of the Clippers’ roster.
Although the team is of high quality and full, the games they provide to the Clippers are not very convincing. Recently, they have improved their form, and are in a series of 3 victories, but they came against teams belonging to the lower echelon of the Western category. But what can make Clippers fans very happy are the great games of Paul George, who scored 30 points in the last three matches and led the Clippers to victories.
The Clippers will try to continue their winning streak, and they have the width and quality to do so. Even if George is joined by one of his teammates.
Utah Jazz Team News
After Danny Angie did a great job with the Celtics as GM, it’s his turn to take the Jazz to a higher level. This summer, he gave up two key players in Gobert and Mitchell, as well as coach Snyder. The team’s new coach is Will Hardy, a former Celtics assistant. In the trades for Mitchell and Gobert, he got young players that he will try to fit into the system, namely Lauri Markkanen and Colin Sexton. These two proved to be the right choice and, together with Jordan Clarkson, cause big problems for all opposing teams.
Markkanen plays as if in a trance and is one of the main candidates for the MIP.
This season, Utah decided on an attacking style of play and a lot of points. In their composition, they have all the players who can score from a distance. Therefore, it is not surprising that Hardy brought one of the best three-point shooters from the center position, Kelly Olyinik, to his team.
What the Jazz lack is certainly experience and width, as well as “muscles” under the racket. In the last match, they very easily defeated the Lakers away from home, so now only 48 hours later they have a scheduled duel against the Clippers. Will he be able to conquer Los Angeles in just two days?

Phoenix Suns vs. Portland Trail Blazers Prediction
This match is very close in terms of form above all. The Clippers are still in demand, while the Jazz are playing at their best, and we don’t think this Utah team can do better than this. While the Clippers have a lot of room for improvement. Well, that’s exactly why we expect a Clippers victory and continued good results.
For the Clippers, there will be no Leonard in the lineup while Covington is a questionable. Bolmaro out for Jazz.
