Thunder vs Jazz predictions, picks

Justin Martinez: OKC 122, Utah 105

Lauri Markkanen is playing at an All-NBA level right now, and Keyonte George is also playing the best basketball of his young career. It’s a red-hot scoring duo, but Utah isn’t as dangerous on the other end of the floor. The Jazz ranks 25th in the NBA in defensive rating, it lacks lockdown perimeter defenders and it’s missing its top rim protector in Walker Kessler. I don’t see Utah being able to stop OKC, which should improve to 2-0 in NBA Cup group play.
