The Hornets are 4-6 in their 10 games, but those losses came by an average of 4.6 points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are playing teams tough night in and night out, and the same can&#8217;t be said about Utah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"acq_only\"><strong>-> <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNjY1NzMyJnA9MzExMjU%3D\">Build your Hornets vs. Jazz SGP at NorthStar Bets<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Jazz are 1-5 in their last six games, losing three of those contests by double digits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without Markkanen and Ace Bailey (hip), I can&#8217;t see Utah scoring enough points to keep this one close. Jusuf Nurkic (toe) is also questionable, and his absence would lead to a massive size mismatch in the paint for Kalkbrenner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Hornets beat the Jazz by 23 points in Charlotte earlier this year with Nurkic, Bailey and Markkanen playing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"cacheembed:122721\">Embed: #122721<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">NBA SGP legs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Knueppel 4+ threes<\/strong> (-103):<\/strong> Cooper Flagg has pulled ahead in the Rookie of the Year race, but Knueppel is still within shouting distance of his Duke Blue Devils teammate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sharpshooting guard has been lights out from beyond the arc this year:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The rookie is averaging 3.6 threes on 8.4 attempts a night.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>That 42.7% three-point rate is the third-highest of any player taking 7.0+ threes per game.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"acq_only\"><strong>-> <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNjY1NzMyJnA9MzExMjU%3D\">Back Rookie of the Year candidate Kon Knueppel on Saturday<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knueppel has gone under this mark in four of his last five, but that doesn&#8217;t worry me. He still shot 39.5% from deep in that span, and hit four-plus 3s in six straight games before that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Utah has the fourth-worst 3-point defence in the NBA (37.2%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Miller 4+ rebounds (-245): <\/strong>Finally, I want to back Miller on the glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The third-year forward is averaging 4.2 rebounds per game and has reached this milestone in four straight games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Utah is lacking size across the board and has struggled to hold opposing rebounders in check lately. It ranks 19th in rebounding rate over the last 10 games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Jazz will be even worse off if Nurkic, who averages 9.8 rebounds, misses a second straight game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Miller isn&#8217;t a giant by NBA standards, but is big enough at 6-foot-7 to capitalize on a mismatch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Hornets vs. Jazz SGP made at 3:45 p.m. ET on Jan. 10, 2026<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"acq_only\"><strong>-&gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNjY1NzMyJnA9MzExMjU%3D\">Sign up to NorthStar Bets today<\/a>!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"thestar\">Looking to get started? <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNzQxMyZsPTEzNTI3NDExJnA9MjMyNDM%3D\">Sign up here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Charlotte Hornets visit the shorthanded Utah Jazz to close out Saturday&#8217;s NBA slate.
