Next defeat for Utah?

Three duels in the NBA will take place on the night from Sunday to Monday on 17.01.2022. Among others, Utah will play in Denver, where the basketball players from Salt Lake City want to stop their series of four defeats in a row. An expert tip with current betting odds is presented for all games!

Sacramento Kings vs. Houston Rockets – 17 January, 00:00 hrs

The Sacramento Kings were already able to prevail against Houston on the previous matchday. The previous direct duel against the Rockets was also won in front of their own backdrop, although that encounter took place around ten months ago.

Thanks to the two victories, a black streak of four straight defeats against the Texans was stopped. They also travel to the tournament in last place in the West and have won just five of their 24 games away from home.

For the duel of the Sacramento Kings against the Houston Rockets, however, bets on more than 20.5 points by Christian Wood on the side of the visitors are recommended. The centre is currently particularly strong on the offensive side of head coach Stephen Silas’ squad.

Only in two of the last six games he did not exceed the selected limit and also in the direct duel against the Kings on the last matchday he scored 26 points, the best scoring output on the Rockets’ side.

Denver Nuggets vs. Utah Jazz – Jan 17, 02:00

The hoopsters from the Mile High City have been waiting for their next win against Utah for three matches. In this one, they specifically struggled with Bojan Bogdanovic: The small forward delivered the most points of all players on the court twice with 36 and 48 in the three losses.

Head coach Mike Malone’s team also faces the second-best away team in the West. On the other hand, this quality feature of the team from the Mormon state has diminished in strength recently.

The Snyder squad’s last three away games have each ended in defeat, meaning that no less than half of all away defeats this season have been recorded in a row. On top of that, the Salt Lake City basketball team lost to comparatively easy opponents like Detroit and Indiana.

The dress rehearsal against Cleveland was also clearly lost in front of the home crowd last Thursday. The Denver Nuggets’ clash against the Utah Jazz at Ball Arena therefore offers predictions of a home win.

Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Golden State Warriors – January 17, 02:00

Minnesota Timberwolves will be looking for home court advantage in this one: Since nine duels, the host has always prevailed! That’s why the Warriors’ last away win at the Timberwolves was almost three years ago (0-4), although head coach Steve Kerr’s team was only beaten twice in overtime.

Even though the last two games of the home side were lost against Memphis and New Orleans, the home side can be said to be in a stable condition. Both defeats were rather close and took place away from home. The team from the west coast also travels in a somewhat shaky condition.

Only two of the last five games ended with a win for the Californians. For the game at Target Center between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Golden State Warriors on 17.01.2022, betting tips on at least three threes by Anthony Edwards on the side of the hosts are a good idea. The small forward has been convincing on attempts from outside on a regular basis lately.

The 20-year-old has only failed to hit at least three shots from downtown in one of the last six games! Instead, he has averaged no less than 4.6 three-pointers in this review.
