Utah Jazz
Before heading to Las Vegas, the Utah Jazz participated in the traditional home tournament in Salt Lake City. While they lost all three games a year ago, this time they managed to secure one victory. In the final game of the tournament, the Jazz defeated the Memphis Grizzlies (98-83), but previously fell short against the Oklahoma City Thunder (85-95) and the Philadelphia 76ers (94-104). The first game in Vegas was successful for the Jazz, as they secured a 105-99 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers. The Jazz had an excellent offensive performance, with Keon’te George leading the way with 33 points. Oshae Brissett contributed 21 points, and Michael Porter Jr. scored 18 points.
Minnesota Timberwolves
The Timberwolves’ roster in the Summer League is comprised mostly of newcomers. However, this didn’t prevent them from achieving a convincing victory over the New Orleans Pelicans. They won 102-88, thanks to a 30-13 run in the final quarter. Notably, former Portland Trail Blazers player Brandon Williams scored 24 points for the Timberwolves. Josh Minott, a draft pick by the Wolves, scored 20 points. Leonard Miller contributed 16 points, and Wendell Moore Jr. added 15 points to the team’s tally.
Prediction
Utah Jazz has won their previous two games, but even in those victories, they haven't been reliable defensively. In three out of four games played in the Summer League, the Jazz allowed 94 points or more. The individual total for Minnesota Timberwolves, offered for the upcoming match, appears to be underestimated, and we will take advantage of that. The odds for the Timberwolves' success are also higher than they should be. In their game against the New Orleans Pelicans, the Timberwolves looked excellent, so why not repeat their success against the Jazz? Our prediction is a victory for the Minnesota Timberwolves with a handicap of (+4.5) at odds of 1.87 from bookmaker 1xBet. Our second prediction is that the individual total for the Minnesota Timberwolves will be over 92.5 at odds of 1.88. Place a bet on the line of 1xBet with odds of 1.87.
