After defeating the Indiana Pacers in a comfortable wire-to-wire victory last night, the Utah Jazz are undoubtedly on a roll. They’ve won six straight contests and while a few of those victories in the middle were against mediocre opponents, they did start the streak off with a win over the Cleveland Cavaliers and last night’s win was over a playoff caliber Pacers team who had won seven of nine before visiting the Jazz.
This latest hot streak has been quite eventful for the Jazz as it has seen Gordon Hayward continue to play at an impressive All-Star level scoring 20 or more points in all but one of the six wins and Rudy Gobert continue his streak of double-figure rebound games, including a historic 27-point, 25-rebound night against Dallas.
