Two of the longest winning streaks in the NBA collide on Thursday night when Utah plays its third consecutive game on the road, this time in Philadelphia against the 76ers. Tipoff is set for 5 p.m. MST.
Utah enters the contest on a five-game winning streak, primarily aided by the league's top offense and a defense that's beginning to find its rhythm due to the play of three-time defensive player of the year Rudy Gobert.
Gobert leads the NBA in defensive rebounds per game at 13.0 while ranking second in blocks at 2.2 (played more than one game).
