What to Know

Jazz fans better hope the squad plays one heck of a game on Monday as the odds are decidedly against them. Their road trip will continue as they head out to face the Cleveland Cavaliers at 7:00 p.m. ET at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. The Jazz might want some stickum for this one as the team gave up 18 turnovers on Saturday.

The Jazz are headed into this one after the oddsmakers set last week’s over/under low at 220.5, but even that wound up being too high. They came out on top against the Nets by a score of 105-94.

Meanwhile, the Cavaliers had already won three in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 20.7 points) and they went ahead and made it four on Saturday. They put the hurt on Philadelphia with a sharp 126-99 victory. Cleveland has made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won nine matches by 19 points or more this season.

The Cavaliers can attribute much of their success to Evan Mobley, who dropped a double-double on 22 points and 13 rebounds, and Darius Garland, who went 6 for 7 from beyond the arc en route to 26 points plus five rebounds. The dominant performance also gave Garland a new career-high in three-point shooting accuracy (85.7%).

The Cavaliers were working as a unit and finished the game with 31 assists. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they’ve now posted at least 25 assists in eight consecutive contests.

Utah’s win bumped their record up to 7-20. As for Cleveland, their victory was their sixth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 25-4.

Both pleased both fans and bettors in their last games by winning and covering the spread. Looking ahead, the Cavaliers are probably looking forward to this one considering their 14 advantage in the spread. This contest will be Utah’s 20th straight as the underdogs (so far over this stretch they are 9-10 against the spread).

The Jazz ended up a good deal behind the Cavaliers when the teams last played back in April, losing 129-113. Can the Jazz avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We’ll find out soon enough.
