Atticus Ferguson: Jazz 121, Hornets 105.
With LaMelo Ball listed as questionable with right ankle soreness, my guess is that he sits this one out just as he did last time he was listed with the same condition. Assuming there’s no LaMelo tonight, that’s a pretty massive blow to team morale, and a ton of production to account for. Utah will simply out match these Hornets tonight.
Prediction record: 13-4.
Schuyler Callihan: Jazz 128, Hornets 95.
Charlotte ran out of gas in the second half of Friday's game against Houston, allowing 82 points. Since the Terry Rozier trade, this group looks a little lost. They're trying to find they're footing offensively and are pressing a bit too much which carries with them to the defensive end - hence the foul trouble for LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller last night. I'd be shocked if this young group even looks competitive tonight. Big spot for a blowout here...again. Utah has too much firepower in the frontcourt for Charlotte to handle. Jazz win big.
Prediction record: 19-7.
