And when it comes to losing, the Jazz and Markkanen have seen a significant amount of that in Salt Lake City this season. Utah currently has the second-worst win-loss in the entire NBA through half the year, and currently lie on a five-game losing streak during their latest stretch of games.

The Utah Jazz got some good news regarding one of their top contributors. Lauri Markkanen will be suiting up for the Jazz for the first time since January 11 versus the Oklahoma City Thunder. Markkanen had missed Utah’s previous four contests due to a back injury.

Markkanen posted 17 points (7-17 FG, 3-10 3Pt), six rebounds and one block in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 123-114 loss to the Thunder.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored a career-high 54 points and the Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Utah Jazz 123-114.

The NBA odds already have Utah listed as a massive underdog, and that spread could continue to grow with injuries up front for the visitor. With potential holes around the hoop, center Walker Kessler is called upon to pick up the slack in both scoring and rebounding.

The Jazz played Lauri Markkanen and John Collins against OKC, and were tied with just over five minutes left, but lost the game from there. On turnovers, John Collins trade rumors, and Justin Zanik's broadcast interview.

It wouldn’t really be a 2024-25 Utah Jazz game if the opponent didn’t pull off some historic feat or a player on the opposing team didn’t have a career night.
