What to Know
The Indiana Pacers haven’t won a matchup against the Utah Jazz since Nov. 27 of 2019, but they’ll be looking to end the drought on Thursday. The Pacers might have tired legs after a game yesterday as they head on the road against Utah at 9 p.m. ET Nov. 11 at Vivint Arena. Utah should still be feeling good after a victory, while Indiana will be looking to right the ship.
It was all tied up 44-44 at halftime, but Indiana was not quite the Denver Nuggets’ equal in the second half when they met on Wednesday. It was a hard-fought contest, but Indiana had to settle for a 101-98 defeat against the Nuggets. Despite their loss, Indiana got to see several of their players rise to the challenge and make noteworthy plays. point guard Malcolm Brogdon, who had 25 points and five assists, was the best among equals.
Meanwhile, the Atlanta Hawks typically have all the answers at home, but on Tuesday the Jazz proved too difficult a challenge. Utah had enough points to win and then some against the Hawks, taking their game 110-98. It was another big night for Utah’s shooting guard Donovan Mitchell, who shot 5-for-11 from downtown and finished with 27 points and five dimes.
Indiana have to know they’ll be fighting an uphill battle given the 10.50 point spread they are up against. However, those who like betting on the underdog should be happy to hear that they are 3-0 against the spread when expected to lose.
Indiana is now 4-8 while the Jazz sit at 8-3. A pair of stats to keep an eye on: Indiana is fourth worst in the league in fouls per game, with 21.1 on average. To make matters even worse for Indiana, Utah comes into the game boasting the second most fouls drawn per game in the league at 21. So the cards are definitely stacked in Utah’s favor.
