Dallas Mavs vs. Utah Jazz: 3 Big Things to Watch (Sports Illustrated)

The Dallas Mavericks will take on the Utah Jazz on Wednesday. What are some of the biggest key things to watch? DallasBasketball.com has you covered.

Doncic has often countered switching by attacking the mismatch out in space and either getting to his step-back 3-pointer or getting into the paint to make a play. Will the Jazz switch often if so? It has been an incredible start to the season for Luka Doncic, who is leading the NBA in points per game (36.7) entering Wednesday's action. Markkanen, in particular, has shown to be an impressive talent after receiving an expanded role with the Jazz. With the Jazz deploying smaller guards in their rotation, it could be challenging to handle Doncic, especially without much for established rim protection. There have been lapses from the Mavs' defense to start the season that display an ongoing need to fine-tune communication and rotations. Next for the Mavs will be a test against the surging Utah Jazz, who have pulled off a 6-2 start to the season. The Jazz may not deploy a superstar in their frontcourt. Will he be the primary defender? The victory came after experiencing a [117-111 overtime loss](https://www.si.com/nba/mavericks/news/dallas-mavs-luka-doncic-jason-kidd-late-game-execution-woes-reach-new-low-loss-vs-okc-thunder) that featured losing a big lead late in the game. Dallas also opened the regular season losing after holding a 22-point lead over the Phoenix Suns. If the unit can tighten up execution on defense as Doncic shreds apart base defensive coverages, they should be a highly successful first-quarter team.

NBA Odds: Jazz vs. Mavericks prediction, odds and pick (ClutchPoints)

The Jazz face the Mavericks on Wednesday. Our NBA odds series has our Jazz Mavericks prediction, odds and pick.

The Mavs might win outright, but the Jazz should be able to keep this game close. Dallas is limited, and the Jazz’s team approach seems to be tailored to this game. The Jazz are due for regression after sweeping the Grizzlies this past weekend. The floor leadership of Mike Conley is part of this, and Jordan Clarkson is certainly an important piece of this team’s offensive attack, but the true revelation of the Jazz in the first few weeks of the season is Lauri Markkanen. The Utah Jazz continue to defy the prevailing preseason consensus in the NBA. The Dallas Mavericks have a very clear problem: Luka Doncic is not getting enough help in the backcourt or in general.

The Mavericks have the NBA's 12th-best rebounding percentage (50.4) compared to Utah's 25th ranking (48.6%). Luka is dominating opponents, with Christian Wood and Spencer Dinwiddie playing great ball as well. I love the way this Jazz team is playing, but they're overmatched here. Luka is on an otherwordly stretch, nearly averaging a triple-double, so Utah will have its hands full defensively. Coming off two straight wins over the Grizzlies, they hope to shock another Western Conference contender in the Dallas Mavericks tonight. Jazz vs.
