- 11 years ago
The 32-27 Utah Jazz will travel to face the 29-28 Milwaukee Bucks in an NBA pro basketball game on Monday night. Tip off time from Milwaukee is scheduled for 8PM Eastern Time with national television coverage provided by the NBA League Pass Channel.
The NBA odds from this game will come out on Monday afternoon as both Al Jefferson and Paul Millsap are listed as questionable with ankle injuries.
The teams went head to head back on February 6th with Utah posting the 100-86 home win against the Bucks as a -5 1/2 point betting favorite. The total landed under 199 ½ points.
Utah has a road record of 10-19 on the year. They break a three game losing streak after a 98-68 home win on Friday night against the Charlotte Bobcats as a -9 point betting favorite. The game finished under 194 points. The Jazz held the Bobcats to just 24 first half points. Utah connected on 48.7% from the field and 5 of 16 from three. They undressed Charlotte on the glass by a 62-24 rebounding margin. They held the Bobcats to 34.6% shooting. Enes Kanter had 23 points and 22 rebounds on 10 of 12 shooting. Utah is currently clinging to the seventh seed in the Western conference playoff chase. They hold a three game lead over the ninth seeded LA Lakers. If Utah is to become a playoff team they will need to defend better. They have allowed 100 or more points to four of their past five opponents.
The Bucks on their home court are 15-14 straight up. Milwaukee wins their third straight following a 122-114 home overtime victory against the Toronto Raptors on Saturday night as a -6 ½ point betting favorite. The game landed over 199 ½ points. Milwaukee blew an eight point lead after three quarters that forced the overtime session. The Bucks shot 50% for the game and made 5 of 14 three pointers. They pulled down six more rebounds than the Raptors and gave up 46% shooting to the Raptors. Ersan Ilyasova had 29 points and 11 rebounds on 12 of 21 shooting. Probably the most eye opening stat is the fact that Brandon Jennings dished out 19 assists. He got the message as Jennings was losing minutes because of inefficiency. He played 45 minutes on Saturday. That was a good sign because Monta Ellis and Brandon Jennings brought down Milwaukee to 25th in the NBA in shooting percentage at 43.6% for the season. If Jennings and Ellis dish out assists more this team has a very high ceiling.
