The Oklahoma City Thunder are taking on the Utah Jazz in what projects to be a snooze fest. The OKC Thunder have the clear-cut talent edge over Utah, despite each team turning in lengthy injury reports.
The Oklahoma City Thunder will be without Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein against the Utah Jazz who own a size advantage - however, Utah lacks the quality guard play needed to take advantage of it. As the Jazz ball handlers punt, pass and kick the ball all over the floor, the Thunder should clean up in transition and by nature limit the Jazz big men.
Utah had some key rotational pieces tabbed as questionable for this game before upgrading them to available as each team submitted a fresh report this afternoon for this evening's tilt.
Up next, the Oklahoma City Thunder will take on the Dallas Mavericks on the second night of back-to-back in the Paycom Center on Thursday. The Mavericks injury report gets no lighter as Dereck Lively II is tabbed as out for two-to-three months.
