Jazz seeking to extend Timberwolves' season-long miseryBasketball Betting Lines03/17/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - In a potential mismatch on the NBA docket, the Western Conference power Utah Jazz welcome the lowly Minnesota Timberwolves to Salt Lake City tonight. The Jazz, who are currently the fourth seed in the West, snapped a rare two- game skid on Monday with a win over another also-ran, the Washington Wizards. Carlos Boozer led the way in that one with 23 points and nine rebounds as the Jazz sent the reeling Wizards to their eighth consecutive defeat, a 112-89 setback, at EnergySolutions Arena. Deron Williams added 17 points and 11 assists, but sat out the fourth quarter for the Jazz after landing awkwardly in the waning moments of the third. Sundiata Gaines totaled a career-high 15 points as the Jazz had seven players score in double figures. Mehmet Okur returned from a one-game absence due to a strained back and had 14 points for the Jazz, who won for the fifth time in seven contests. They were coming off a 2-2 road trip. "I was proud of us," Boozer said. "We lost two tough ones on the road. We just played [Sunday] and we came back [Monday] and acted like we didn't play last night. Hungry. We beat a team that had been playing pretty good." Williams is expected to play tonight while forward Andrei Kirilenko, who missed his second straight game on Monday with a strained left calf, remains questionable. The Wolves, meanwhile, continue to mail it in down the stretch, dropping their 10th consecutive game last night. Jason Richardson led eight Phoenix players in double figures in that one with 27 points as the Suns lit up the scoreboard with a 152-114 win. Amare Stoudemire netted 25 points and Steve Nash added 13 along with 14 assists as the Suns set an NBA-high for points in a game this season. "That's what happens when you don't play any defense," Timberwolves coach Kurt Rambis said. Corey Brewer racked up 21 points and Ryan Gomes added 18 for the lowly T-Wolves, who have lost 16 of their last 17 overall and have the worst record in the Western Conference. Despite their monumental struggles this season, the Wolves have actually taken two of three meeting from Utah this season, including their last trip to Salt Lake -- a 110-108 triumph in December.
