While Giannis Antetokounmpo, Eric Bledsoe, and Khris Middleton didn’t see action in the first preseason game, coach Mike Budenholzer has intimated those players are likely to get action in this game.

The Jazz will play New Orleans, Sacramento, and Portland before getting the regular season underway. The Bucks have Dallas, Washington, and Minnesota remaining on their preseason schedule.

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Adelaide 36ers/Jazz under209 -110

As the Utah Jazz get ready to kick off a new season in search of further postseason success, they’ll begin their preparations with a preseason matchup against the Adelaide 36ers. The over/under is set at 209 points.

This 2019 Jazz team should feature more firepower than the team has had in years. Alongside breakout star Donovan Mitchell, a full-strength Jazz team will start Mike Conley, Bojan Bogdanovic, and Rudy Gobert.

Last year, Mitchell led all Jazz players with 23.8 points per game. Mitchell also added 4.1 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game.

At center, Gobert led Utah with 12.9 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game. Gobert was also the team’s second leading scorer with 15.9 points per game.

Former Grizzlies point guard Conley figures to be a big upgrade for the Jazz. Last year, Conley scored 21.1 points per game while adding 3.4 rebounds and 6.4 assists on average.

Bogdanovic brings his 18 points and 4.1 rebounds per game over from his 2018-19 season with the Pacers.

Although the Jazz should never be in doubt against the 36ers of the NBL, that wasn’t the case last year. In a preseason game last season, the 36ers outscored Utah in the first and third quarters.

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Rockets -3½ -110

Coming off a 140-71 victory over the Shanghai Sharks, the Houston Rockets will face off against the Clippers in another preseason matchup. This will be Los Angeles’ first preseason contest, and will take place in Honolulu, Hawai’i.

After a 53-29 season, the Rockets will head into a new year with James Harden at the forefront of everything they do. However, Houston has added a big piece in the form of former Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russel Westbrook.

Last season, Harden scored 36.1 points per game while earning an average of 6.6 rebounds and 7.5 assists. Meanwhile, Westbrook racked up 22.9 points, 11.1 rebounds, and 10.7 assists per game.

Despite putting Westbrook and Harden together, the more anticipated duo will be that of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. Leonard comes to LA after a championship season with the Raptors, and George arrives in his new home after playing with Westbrook in Oklahoma City last year.

Leonard, who averaged 26.6 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game last year, is unlikely to play in the Clippers’ two preseason games in Hawai’i.

In the 2018-19 season, George led the Thunder with 28 points per game. George also average 8.2 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game.
