*Utah Jazz at Minnesota Timberwolves (-9.5, 223.5)
Lauri Markkanen will miss his fourth consecutive game tonight, and in the time he has missed Utah’s offense has been terrible. The Jazz have averaged just 106.9 points per 100 possessions, and last night in Memphis the Grizzlies limited them to 0.968 points per possession in a 105-91 loss. The Timberwolves have allowed the fewest points per 100 possessions in non-garbage time (107.2), and at home they have the second-highest defensive rating (101.5). Now, Utah must go to Minnesota with an offense that has averaged 108.6 points every 100 possessions without Markkanen.
