Throughout Utah’s four-game winning streak, the Jazz are averaging nearly 126 points per game.
Behind the top offense in the NBA and Donovan Mitchell’s ascension into one of the premier players in the league, the Jazz have been nearly unstoppable on that end of the court.
But what makes Utah’s offensive efficiency that much more impressive is that two of those four games have come against some of the top defenses in the league. Boston and Cleveland possess top-10 defenses, and the Jazz had no issue scoring against either.
Utah will need another such performance on Wednesday night when it faces off with Minnesota, another top-10 defense that’s only getting stronger with the return of Patrick Beverley — expected back tonight after missing two weeks with an injury.
