✅ Utah is a stellar 8-3 at home on the season thus far.

Portland Trail Blazers
The Portland Trail Blazers have lost three straight games, dropping to 10th place in the Western Conference in the process. Portland has dropped seven of their last eight games, as they have really struggled without Damian Lillard in their lineup. Without a solid defense to rely on, the loss of Lillard’s scoring has been a huge factor of late.
With Lillard out, the play of Anfernee Simons and Jerami Grant will be huge once again for the Trail Blazers. They beat the Knicks together in their lone win over the last eight games, but have not done enough as a duo with Lillard out. That has to change for Portland to win here.
Utah Jazz
The Utah Jazz have won two straight games coming into this contest with the Portland Trail Blazers. However, those wins came against a Clippers team missing Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, and a Pacers team that lacks consistent top-end talent. The question for Utah is if they can beat a better team here in the Trail Blazers.
Mike Conley’s status is up in the air for this game for the Jazz, but they are largely healthy beyond their veteran point guard. But they have averaged 132 points per game in their last two games and should be fine offensively without him.
