What you need to know about the Jazz
Utah is now on a five-game losing streak following its 126-106 loss to Minnesota on Sunday. The Jazz, who have dropped 11 of their last 13 games, will now be without Joe Ingles for the rest of the season. Ingles suffered a knee injury on a non-contact play in the loss to the Timberwolves.
The Jazz are also going to be without All-Stars Donovan Mitchell (concussion) and Rudy Gobert (calf) on Wednesday. Head coach Quin Snyder and reserve Danuel House Jr. are both in COVID-19 protocol. Utah has won 13 of its last 15 home games against Denver.
What you need to know about the Nuggets
Denver had its five-game winning streak snapped in a 130-115 loss at Minnesota on Tuesday. The Nuggets’ bench was outscored by Minnesota’s bench 47-12 during the first three quarters of the contest. Nikola Jokic led Denver with 21 points, 16 rebounds and eight assists in the loss.
Jokic is nearly averaging a triple-double this season, scoring 25.9 points, grabbing 13.8 rebounds and dishing out 7.8 assists per game. He was questionable to play against Minnesota on Tuesday due to a toe injury, but he was able to put together another impressive stat-line regardless.
