Their most recent result was a 97-123 loss at the hands of the Milwaukee Bucks as they dropped down to eighth place in the Western Conference. They are having a very commendable season as the performances of Jordan Clarkson and Lauri Markkanen have made them a top-five offense in the league.

Jazz vs. Cavaliers Betting Prediction
The Cavaliers have an incredible home record this campaign. They have won 14 of the 16 games that they’ve played at the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse as they prepare to host the Utah Jazz, who come into this game on the back of a demoralizing loss.
A familiar face in Donovan Mitchell will face the Jazz as he comes into this game with a vengeance. His form has been a driving force for the Cavs’ success, averaging nearly 33 points per game in December.
Cavaliers: -245
