Portland Trail Blazers @ Utah Jazz Preview

The Portland Trail Blazers (24-33) are looking to build on their recent 141-88 victory over the Charlotte Hornets, which snapped a four-game losing streak. Led by Anfernee Simons (18.5 PPG) and Shaedon Sharpe (17 PPG), the Blazers have shown flashes of offensive potential but remain inconsistent, particularly on the road with an 8-19 record. Portland ranks 25th in points per game (109.6) and 23rd in defensive rating, highlighting their struggles on both ends of the floor.

The Utah Jazz (14-42) are coming off a 124-115 win over the Houston Rockets, marking one of their rare bright spots in a challenging season. Lauri Markkanen (19.3 PPG, 6.1 RPG) and Keyonte George (16.8 PPG) have been key contributors, but the Jazz rank 28th in defensive rating and have struggled to contain opponents. With a 7-20 home record, Utah will look to leverage their offensive rebounding strength to compete against Portland.

Pick: Over 231.5 Total Points

Both teams have been involved in high-scoring games recently, with the over hitting in their last two meetings this season. The Jazz have gone over the total in eight consecutive games, while the Blazers are coming off their highest-scoring performance of the season. With both teams ranking poorly in defensive metrics and excelling in offensive rebounding, this game is likely to be another high-scoring affair.

Top Player Prop Picks

Anfernee Simons Over 18.5 Points

widget-props-nba-4880-2110828

Simons has been a consistent scorer for the Blazers, averaging 18.5 points per game. With Utah's defensive struggles, particularly on the perimeter, Simons is well-positioned to exceed his scoring average.

Lauri Markkanen Over 19.5 Points

Markkanen has been the Jazz's most reliable offensive weapon, averaging 19.3 points per game. With Portland's defensive rebounding issues, Markkanen should have ample opportunities to score.

Keyonte George Over 5.5 Assists

George has shown playmaking potential, averaging 6.0 assists per game. Against a Blazers defense that struggles to contain ball movement, George is a strong candidate to surpass this assist line.
