UTA vs HOU Dream11 Match Prediction

 

UTA vs HOU Dream11: Utah Jazz will be looking to keep the momentum going when they host a struggling Houston Rockets team in the NBA at Vivint Smart Home Arena, in Utah, on Tuesday morning (IST). Jazz have climbed up the table after an incredible run in the last two months where they lost only twice in 21 regular-season games. With those massive returns, the Jazz are now only three and a half games behind the Western Conference leaders Los Angeles Lakers going into this match.
Houston Rockets, meanwhile, are the complete opposite of Jazz at the moment. For a team of profile as big as theirs and superstar players that this franchise possesses, their current run of the result is just unacceptable. Finishing higher on the table is of paramount importance for the Rockets if they are to avoid the big guns in the earlier rounds of the playoffs.

Grand League tips:

  • Option for the captain should be James Harden if he is fit to play this game. The former Thunder prodigy has been in lethal form all season and not only leads the NBA with 36.1 points per game. but he is the only player with an average more than 35 this season.
  • Jazz’s Donovan Mitchell is somebody who is capable of matching Harden’s efforts if finds his shots earlier in the game. He leads the Jazz with 24.7 points per game this season.
  • Rudy Gobert and Clint Capela guarantee points, but selecting both of them is almost impossible due to their high value. we say Gobert.
