The Jazz have the home-court advantage, but the Bucks are expected to win by nine points.
The Bucks are probably headed into the match with a chip on their shoulder considering the Clippers just ended the team’s five-game winning streak on Saturday. They fell 127-117 to Los Angeles.
The Bucks’ defeat shouldn’t obscure the performances of Damian Lillard, who dropped a triple-double on 29 points, ten rebounds, and ten assists, and Giannis Antetokounmpo, who dropped a double-double on 36 points and 13 rebounds. Antetokounmpo’s evening made it six games in a row in which he has scored at least 30 points.
The Bucks struggled to get the ball back on offense and finished the game with only five offensive rebounds. They were smoked by their opponents in that department as the Clippers pulled down 12.
Meanwhile, the Jazz’s recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Saturday after their fifth straight loss. They suffered a grim 125-103 defeat to the Grizzlies. For those keeping track at home, that’s the biggest loss Utah has suffered since December 16, 2024.

The Bucks took their victory against the Jazz when the teams last played back in November of 2024 by a conclusive 123-100. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Bucks since the squad won’t have the home-court advantage this time around. We’ll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
