The Utah Jazz will be out for revenge on Saturday night as they travel to Chicago to face the Bulls. The Jazz lost at home last month 101-100 to the Bulls as Larry Hughes hit a shot at the buzzer to win it for Chicago.  Utah has struggled somewhat on the road this season while the Bulls have been a good home team.  Both teams could come into this game a bit weary as the Jazz played at Detroit last night while the Bulls were in Boston. SBG Global reports that early NBA betting has the public taking Jazz on the Road.

The Jazz got 26 points from Mehmet Okur in that first matchup while Paul Millsap had his first double-double of the season with 21 points and 10 rebounds.  Derrick Rose had 25 points and 9 assists to lead the Bulls in that game. Last year Deron Williams averaged 17.5 ppg and 10.5 apg against the Bulls. The Bulls own an all-time 24-16 advantage in games played in Chicago against the Jazz, including a 7-7 record at the United Center. Overall, the Bulls are 7-16 against Utah since the 1997-98 season.

Iowa State: Are They The Underdogs To Look For In March Madness?

They may be defined as “underdogs” or “Cinderella teams”, a term that is usually saved for teams that have little to no chance of winning even a single game during the NCAA Tournament. Teams like Loyola Marymount (1990), George Mason (2006), Davidson (2008), VCU (2011), UConn (2014), and Loyola Chicago (2018) come to mind when conversations turn toward the most surprising tournament runs in recent memory.
