After opening the season with what most would deem a successful three-game road trip, the Utah Jazz have finally returned to Salt Lake City and will play host to the Portland Trail Blazers tonight at Vivint Smart Home Arena.
The Trail Blazers enter town with a 2-2 record after defeating the Minnesota Timberwolves 106-101. The Jazz are 2-1 after throttling the Indiana Pacers on Saturday.
Unfortunately for the Blazers, they may have to contend with a certain NBA MVP while they’re in town. More on this below.
Tip-Off–7 PM MDT
Projected Starters–Utah Jazz: PG Raul Neto, SG Rodney Hood, SF Gordon Hayward, PF Trevor Booker, C Rudy Gobert
