LiontipsUtah - Toronto. NBA Match Betting Tip
Command Analysis
Current form
Rebuilding Utah is still going hard. Will Hardy fails to reach his players and they demonstrate a mediocre game. We can say that the season is almost over for them, because the Jazzmen have not managed to leave the last line of the Western Conference. The team from Salt Lake City has only 15 wins.
Utah is approaching the match with Toronto with a 7-match losing streak. In recent matches, Hardy's team has lost to Boston (108:114) and Memphis (115:122) without much resistance. Despite the setbacks, it cannot be said that the jazzmen looked catastrophically bad.
Disqualifications and injuries
Will not play: John Collins, Keyonte George.
Interesting facts for betting
In terms of the number of home wins, Utah also ranks last in the West. The Jazzmen won only eight matches at home.
Approximate composition: Kessler–Sexton, Collier–Markkanen, Clarkson.
Current form
Toronto ranks 11th in the Eastern Conference standings. The Canadians have 23 wins and five fewer games won than tenth-ranked Chicago. Theoretically, the reptiles can still get into the playoffs, but for this you need to win all the matches and count on competitors to misfire.
In recent matches, Toronto has shown excellent play and is still trying to get into the playoffs. The day before, representatives of Canada defeated Philadelphia (118:105), and before that they defeated Washington (119:104).

Won 't play: Scotty Barnes, Brandon Ingram, Jacob Peltl, Ochai Agbaji, Grady Dick, Jonathan Mogbo.

In 2 of the last 3 face-to-face meetings, the teams scored more than 52 points.
1.80Tip and bets
Many of the Toronto players are not performing. Because of this, the Canadians operate as a second team. Compared to the previous match with Philadelphia, they had another loss. Jacob Peltl won't be on the floor in Salt Lake City. In this case, the Raptors' chances look very slim.
Jazzmen continue to use Markkanen and Sexton. Utah has almost all the main players, so it has a better chance of winning.
Our prediction is that Utah will win in overtime in 1.77
Bet on the total
We believe that the Toronto reserves will not support Utah in the attack. Most likely, they won't have enough experience, so the meeting with the jazzmen should be grassroots.
The betting tip is a total of less than 232.5 points for 1.80
Betting on statistics
Markkanen has just returned to the court after a back injury and is not acting at full strength. In the last match, he scored only 14 points. It is unlikely that he will perform better now.
Prediction — Lauri Markkanen: total less than 15.5 points in 1.72
