The Utah Jazz will look to keep their winning streak alive as they host the defending champion Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night.
For the first time in nearly two months, the Utah Jazz managed to string together a two-game winning streak and, dare I say, there seems to be a shred of hope back in Jazzland. Not only were the two wins on the road, but the latter of the two came against an incredibly talented Toronto Raptors team that holds the best record on their home court of any team this season.
Nevertheless, the Jazz will have little time to celebrate as they’ll be forced right back into an even more daunting match-up tonight as they host the Golden State Warriors. It goes without saying how good the defending champion Warriors are, so if Utah is to pull out a win, the team will need to be absolutely exceptional and piece together a nearly flawless performance.
The Warriors are riding a three-game winning streak and hold an incredible 40-10 record, so stopping them on their first stop of the season in Salt Lake is going to be far from easy. But if the Jazz are to find a way to pull it off, they’ll do so by playing exceptionally in these three key areas.
