Stephen Curry Jordan Clarkson Rudy Gobert UTA vs GSW Dream11

UTA vs GSW Dream11: COVID-19 keeps on causing postponements and destroying the best-laid plans for different squads in the long and grinding season. Still, the league has kept on going and with relaxed protocols rules, and signings on ten-day deals, somehow, the momentum of the league has been kept alive.

In this game, the Utah Jazz will play against the Golden State Warriors in a typical Western Conference classic. Both teams have played high level of basketball and have done an incredible job of winning games both at home and away from home. This is why this can be a high-level match-up between two well-oiled teams. Can the Warriors notch one away against Jazz away from home?

Warriors can have trouble with Green out and this can affect both their offense and defense. Jazz can be without Ingles and Conley but for them, with Clarkson, Mitchell, Bogdanovic, and Gobert, generating points will not be that big of an issue. This is why I believe the Jazz may have a little edge, playing at home but then who knows what Warriors can cook up with Curry, Poole, and Wiggins.

Host: Utah Jazz
Visitors: Golden State Warriors

Match Timing: 2 January, @ 07:30 AM
Venue: ViVint Smart Home Arena

NBA Projections, Stats, & Analysis

Warriors: Poole, Wiggins, and Curry can score in a lot of ways
Stephen Curry, Andrew Wiggins, and Jordan Poole can all score 20+ points on their nights and in tandem as well. That is why, even with Draymond Green, who is the major playmaker, Golden State can find a lot of ways to score on a regular basis. Otto Porter Jr. is a great option off the bench as he can shoot from the distance and also hold the fort on defense along with Andre Iguodala. Now, the Warriors are deep, they have a wealth of shooters, and they also have an ace like Curry who can single-handedly take the game away with his scoring ways.

Jazz: One of the most balanced teams
The Jazz has a great combination of shooters, slashers, inside players, and playmakers. With Donovan Mitchell scoring 30 or so on a regular basis and Bogdanovic and Clarkson also able to go past 20 or so regularly, the team has been built to succeed on offense. Then if you take into account Rudy Gobert whose rebounding, defense, and inside scoring has continued to thrive, the Jazz can find a lot of ways to score and deploy an outside-inside or inside-outside offense on a regular basis. This is why I rate this team highly, their defense can pick it up during key moments meanwhile their offense is on fire. They won eight in a row during December and are in the midst of a five-game winning streak right now. They seem to become better every season.
