I honestly think this is the first time since maybe Lillard/McCollum was the Portland backcourt that I played the Blazers ML. But if they can't win at home against a truly wretched Jazz team sans Lauri Markkanen and Jordan Clarkson, well then sell the team to the Gemstones.

Portland's Jerami Grant had been rumored as a top trade candidate but is not having a very good season. However, he's still averaging 2.3 points better than this number and 18.6 ppg at home. The Blazers should have no trouble putting up at least a buck-20 tonight against a wretched Utah team and especially defensively. Grant averaged 21.7 ppg last year against the Jazz. Our model has him at 17.7 tonight. NumberFire has him at 18.1.
