Game Preview

The Utah Jazz aim to avoid setting a new franchise low for home starts when they host the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday. After falling 120-112 to the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday, Utah sits at 0-5 at the Delta Center—a rough start they haven’t seen since moving to Utah in 1979, and matching their all-time worst from 1974 in New Orleans.

Head coach Will Hardy is staying positive despite the Jazz’s 2-8 overall record, noting that the young, rebuilding team has shown improvement, going 2-2 after an 0-6 start. Against the Suns, Utah rallied to cut the deficit in the fourth quarter, led by John Collins with 29 points and 10 rebounds, alongside solid contributions from rookie Kyle Filipowski, Lauri Markkanen, and Jordan Clarkson.

Meanwhile, the Mavericks arrive on a three-game losing streak, with recent close losses by a combined six points, including Tuesday’s 120-117 defeat to the Golden State Warriors. Luka Doncic led Dallas with 31 points, eight rebounds, and six assists in the loss, while Kyrie Irving and Thompson chipped in strong performances. Doncic is probable for Thursday’s game despite a knee contusion, but P.J. Washington remains doubtful.

Dallas took their first matchup against the Jazz 110-102 on October 28, with Irving, Doncic, and Thompson combining for a strong offensive effort. With both teams looking to turn things around, this game is set to be a tight contest as the Jazz seek to protect home court for the first time this season.
