Utah Jazz vs Philadelphia 76ers Prediction: Jazz to lose 2nd game of the home tournament as well

Utah failed in their first game at home in the NBA Summer League, losing to Oklahoma City by 21 points. Will the Jazz be able to do better in the second match against Philadelphia? We will choose several options for betting at once.

Utah is the tournament underdog

Despite the fact that the Jazz are playing at home, they are the clear underdog. While all of the teams have players with significant NBA experience from the previous season, the only thing the Jazz have going for them is Jared Butler. Butler played only eight or fewer minutes in 42 games in the 2021/22 regular season.

Utah's lack of experience made all the difference in their game against Oklahoma. 77-98, Xavier Sneed was the most prolific for the Jazz with 15 points. Butler scored ten; German Hamburg guard Caleb Homesley had 12 points off the bench.

Philadelphia also lost the first game

The Seventy-Sixers, though they lost, showed much more dignity than the Jazz in the opening game of the tournament. Philadelphia played evenly with Memphis and lost only in the end, 99-103. Paul Reed, the G-League MVP 2021, was a standout for the 76ers with 20 points. Isaiah Joe had 19 points. Jaden Springer, No. 28 pick of the 2021 draft, has 15 points.

Head-to-head encounters

Since 2015, the rivals have met four times in the Summer League and have beaten each other two times.

Expert Betting Tips

The class of the opponents for the upcoming matchup seems incomparable. Philadelphia is staffed for the current tournament many times better than Utah. The 76ers were close to winning their opening game against Memphis and will surely take what they started there to the end in the game against the Jazz.

Prediction: a confident win for Philadelphia.
