The Utah Jazz (20-20) are facing off against the Los Angeles Lakers (19-20) at the Delta Center tonight. The Jazz have returned to a .500 record, have won 13 of their last 17 games, and are now competing for a Play-In position. In one of the most impressive mid-season turnarounds the franchise has ever experienced, the Jazz are playing fantastic basketball with Lauri Markkanen and Collin Sexton leading the charge.
The Lakers, on the other hand, have struggled to string together wins over the last month. They have only won five of their last 15 games and have both fallen outside of the Play-In and behind the Jazz in the standings.
