Los Angeles Lakers (34-22) vs Utah Jazz (41-14)

Donovan Mitchell being out with a sprained ankle is a huge development for the Jazz. He's the one that stirs their drink and sets the table for their offense. He's their top scorer and while they have other players that shoot the three well, he opens up their offense to the point where someone is wide open for target practice. The Lakers are still among the best defense teams in the league and with them at home, they should catch the Jazz reeling off the loss of their best player. The Lakers have a shot at winning this outright, but grab whatever points are out there. Take the points.
