The Utah Jazz will welcome the Sacramento Kings in their next NBA assignment, seeking to return to winning ways. They arrive for this game with the worst record in the Western Conference and are 15 games behind their 10th-placed visitors. Read on for our prediction of this match.

The Jazz were pegged back 114-112 at home by the Trail Blazers last time out. That was their seventh loss in the last 10 games and saw them drop into last place in the West with a 14-43 record.

The Jazz have lost 21 of 28 home games and 34 of 40 matchups with fellow West teams. Utah are going through an injury crisis with their top performers expected to miss this game.

Collin Sexton, Jordan Clarkson, Walker Kessler, John Collins and Lauri Markkanen are all named in the injury report.

The Kings have won seven straight meetings with the Jazz. This season, they are 3-0 against their soon-to-be hosts and are seeking to sweep this regular season series.

Doug Christie’s men, who are chasing a playoff spot, will arrive confident of a win. The Kings are coming off a spectacular 130-88 victory over the Hornets.

That was the second time they won by an over 40-point margin this season. The first such success was against the Jazz.
