With just six games left before the playoffs the Utah Jazz are doing everything they can to avoid the play-in tournament. They’ll face the Lakers tonight who will likely be without LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
This is a lot different than what Jazz fans expected from this team at this point in the season. Last year, the Jazz had the #1 record in the entire NBA by the end of the season. This season, they’re looking at just hoping to hold on to the #6 seed. And this was only after giving up a 25-point lead in their last game against Paul George and the Clippers.
