Too few games this season to read on their own, so 11 of these 14 are carried over from last season. Expect this read to move as the season fills in.

Jackson sustained the injury early in Monday's loss to Memphis, and he's now expected to miss at least a month and a half of action. The star big man's absence creates a major void in the Utah lineup, one that is likely to be filled by a timeshare of Jaxson Hayes (shoulder), Kyle Filipowski and Mo Bamba. The Jazz could also shift Lauri Markkanen (wrist), when healthy, to the center spot at times, perhaps allowing Ace Bailey to spend more time at power forward.
Player is Out — no read on this line.Small samples and hot streaks are discounted by a 95% Wilson lower bound (the trust factor), so a thin streak can’t masquerade as an edge.

Over 21.5 PTS by situation, each with its own confidence — thin splits read Low, so a small-sample “crushes at home” doesn’t masquerade as an edge.
How this PTS line has shifted when an injured teammate sits — usage often rises. Descriptive splits from past games, not a forecast.
MIN allows 11.1 PTS per game to forwards (rank 1 = allows the most).

ToughOver his last 10 games, Jaren Jackson Jr. has gone over 21.5 PTS 6 of 10 decided times (60%) — versus 50% across the full season. MIN has been a tough matchup for forwards this season, allowing the 25th-most PTS of 30 teams (11.1 per game). His game-to-game PTS have been fairly steady (σ ≈ 5.2), so short streaks can mislead. These are descriptive stats about past games, not predictions or betting advice.

Hit rate excludes pushes from the denominator. Confidence uses a 95% Wilson interval — a high recent rate on few games still reads as low confidence. Season over rate at this line: 50%.
