Utah Jazz vs Memphis Grizzlies preview
The Utah Jazz have won two straight games against the New Orleans Pelicans and are 12th in the Western Conference with a 6-11 record.
Meanwhile, the Memphis Grizzlies are on a four-game losing streak and occupy the penultimate position in the West at 3-13. They were lackluster in their previous game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, losing 119-97 at home, which led to a fiery rant by Marcus Smart on the bench.
Utah Jazz vs Memphis Grizzlies predicted lineups
The Utah Jazz have three injured players – Jordan Clarkson, Lauri Markkanen and Kelly Olynyk. If all three cannot play, coach Will Hardy could use a starting lineup of Keyonte George, Ochai Agbaji, Simone Fontecchio, John Collins and Omer Yurtseven.
Meanwhile, the Memphis Grizzlies will be without a bunch of players against the Jazz. Coach Taylor Jenkins is expected to use a starting five comprising Jacob Gilyard, Desmond Bane, Santi Aldama, Jaren Jackson Jr. and Bismack Biyombo.
Utah Jazz vs Memphis Grizzlies betting tips

Keyonte George has an over/under of 5.5 assists, which is slightly below his season average of 5.1 assists per game. George is heavily favored to go over despite going under 5.5 assists in three of his last four contests.

Utah Jazz vs Memphis Grizzlies prediction
The Memphis Grizzlies are slightly favored to win against the Utah Jazz. The Grizzlies are on a four-game losing streak, so it's surprising to see them having better odds.
