Ahead of our Utah Jazz vs Boston Celtics prediction and free betting tips, we first look at the recent form of the two sides. The Utah Jazz were beaten by Golden State in the playoffs but started the summer league well with solid wins over San Antonio and Philadelphia. Boston lost in the post-season to the Cleveland Cavaliers but opened their summer league campaign with a win against Philadelphia. They then slipped to defeat against San Antonio.
Utah Jazz will be hoping they can continue their fine form so far in the NBA Summer League with a third straight win on the road. They have had more rest time after an earlier playoff exit so they will be at full strength. Boston will be looking to bounce back after a difficult loss to the San Antonio Spurs and they will be hopeful the momentum of their home fans will boost their chances.
Utah Jazz are averaging 97 ppg in their last ten matches, two points less than the Boston Celtics but the Celtics game point average is at 206 – some ten points more than their counterparts. Neither side have dominated on offence so perhaps look towards the lower end of the over/under and there’s more value in backing the Jazz with a minus handicap than Boston with a positive.
