Thrillzz is going full throttle for the high-octane Northwest division showdown between the Trail Blazers and the Jazz this Thursday at the Delta Center. All you have to do is sign up using the Thrillzz promo code DEADXSC to unlock as much as 3 Sweeps Coins as the Jazz look to score their first win this season against a Blazers squad that has been a complete revelation this season.
All the momentum in the world is with the Blazers heading into this matchup having beaten the Jazz in their past two regular season games by an average margin of 11 points with the last being a 137-117 blowout victory. First-time All-Star Deni Avdija was on target in both of their matchups this season with the Israeli forward averaging 26 points, 8.5 rebounds, and seven assists. However, Avdija is listed as questionable in this matchup because of a lower back strain so expect the Blazers to lean on other guys, particularly on high-flying guard Shaedon Sharpe who dropped 29 points on five-of-eight shooting from downtown last time.
The Jazz, however, are coming in looking like a brand new team after a series of personnel changes during the trade deadline although nothing is more significant than their acquisition of lanky forward Jaren Jackson Jr. The 26-year old Jackson Jr. had a solid Jazz debut as he finished with 22 points, four rebounds, three assists, and three steals on over 50% shooting from the field. Expect the Jazz to continue to get Jackson Jr. going here and try to challenge the Blazers’ interior defense which has struggled at times in attacking closeouts and contesting shots around the rim.
One thing we’d like to see from the Jazz is to try to convert more points off turnovers. Although the Jazz forced the Trail Blazers to 15 miscues last time, they only managed to convert them to 15 points, which is far off from the Trail Blazers’ 27 points off turnovers. That’s why it might be a good idea for the Jazz to push the pace early and look for quicker transition opportunities instead of settling for halfcourt sets.
