Tonight could or could not be one of the biggest games of the year. After a crucial loss to the Raptors (23-43) in Canada, the Jazz (15-51) are back at home for a quick one-game stint. Why is tonight so crucial, may you ask? The Jazz shouldn’t have to worry about Toronto, who’s a full 8 games ahead of the Jazz in the tank race. But with a loss tonight and a Wizards win on Saturday, the Jazz will have tied odds for the #1 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft.
This will be no easy challenge thanks to Adam Silver finally catching on to Danny Ainge’s gimmick.
