KEY GAME INFORMATION
HOUSTON: LAST SEASON: 65-17, lost in Western Conference finals.
COACH: Mike D'Antoni (fourth season, 15th NBA season).
PROJECTED STARTING FIVE: G James Harden (30.4 ppg), G Chris Paul (18.6 ppg), F P.J. Tucker, (6.1 ppg), F James Ennis (7.1 ppg), C Clint Capela (13.9 ppg).
KEY LOSSES: F Trevor Ariza, F Ryan Anderson, F Luc Mbah a Moute
KEY ADDITIONS: F Carmelo Anthony, Ennis, G Michael Carter-Williams
PLAYERS TO WATCH: A year after Anthony was not amenable to coming off the bench in Oklahoma City, the 10-time All-Star seems ready to accept a reserve role in Houston if it means helping the Rockets to a title. The addition of the talented Anthony, along with Ennis to pick up the slack on defense Houston lost in Ariza leaves the Rockets slightly better than they were a year ago when they lost to Golden State in the conference finals.
OUTLOOK: Harden, last year's MVP, and Paul should be even better in their second year together and Anthony adds a new dimension which greatly upgrades Houston's second unit. Ennis will have to pair with Tucker to provide a defensive presence and Capela must take another step this season after signing a $90 million contract this offseason if the Rockets hope to finally get past the Warriors and win their first title since back-to-back championships in 1994-95.
UTAH: LAST SEASON: 48-34, lost in Western Conference semifinals
COACH: Quin Snyder (fifth season)
PROJECTED STARTING FIVE: G Ricky Rubio (13.1 ppg), G Donovan Mitchell (20.5 ppg), F Joe Ingles (11.5 ppg), F Derrick Favors (12.3 ppg), C Rudy Gobert (13.5 ppg).
KEY LOSSES: F Jonas Jerebko
KEY ADDITIONS: G Grayson Allen PLAYER TO WATCH: Mitchell. His emergence keyed Utah's dominant run to close out the regular season a year ago. Can Mitchell continue to elevate his game in his sophomore NBA season? His rookie season exceeded all expectations as he carved an identity as an electrifying scorer. The Jazz benefited from his scoring punch late in games. Mitchell finished the season averaging 20.5 points while shooting 43.7 percent from the field.
OUTLOOK: Utah appeared headed for the lottery until putting together a dramatic turnaround over the final 35 games last season. With all of last season's key players back in place, the Jazz are counting on continuity and chemistry to help them become a serious postseason threat among Western Conference teams in 2018-19.
PREVIEW
Jazz look to keep hot shooting going against Rockets
 

SALT LAKE CITY -- Have the Utah Jazz finally turned a corner on offense?

On that end of the court, Utah feels like a different team than the one that struggled through an offensive slump for the better part of November. The Jazz head into their Thursday night showdown with the visiting Houston Rockets with tons of momentum generated from a historic shooting performance against San Antonio.

Utah beat the Spurs 139-105 on Tuesday night after making a franchise-record 20 3-pointers. The Jazz shot a season-high 60.6 percent from long range and a season-high 60.7 percent from the field.

"When you make a lot of threes, that definitely helps for sure," Utah guard Donovan Mitchell said. "Continuing to drive the ball, finding guys on the perimeter, finding a big fella on the lob. Whatever it may be, just making the right play was huge for us."

Evidence of making the right play showed up for Utah (12-13) in small ways. All 13 Jazz players who saw the court against San Antonio dished out at least one assist. Ten players had two or more assists.

Unselfish offense resulted in many hands shaping a win. Seven Utah players scored in double figures, led by Mitchell's 20 points. Twelve of 13 Jazz players shot 50 percent or better from the field to help their team win for the third time in the last four games.

"We made some tough shots, but we did move the ball and got some other ones," Jazz coach Quin Snyder said. "Any time you have a shooting night like that, you appreciate it."

Generating offense hasn't been the issue for Houston. Getting stops, however, has been a growing concern for the Rockets.

Houston (11-12) has allowed 116.1 points per game over its last nine games. It has caused the team's defensive rating to tumble to 25th among NBA teams. The Rockets' potent offense hasn't been able to keep up at times and the result has been five losses over their last seven contests.

It proved to be the case in a 103-91 loss to Minnesota on Monday night. Houston scored only 29 points after halftime - including just nine in the fourth quarter - blowing a 19-point first-half lead.

"For whatever reason, in the second half we played without any kind of spirit or energy," Rockets coach Mike D' Antoni said after the game.

James Harden is doing his part, averaging 30.6 points and 8.7 assists per contest. Harden has been a thorn in Utah's side in past seasons and will definitely be a concern for the Jazz on Thursday. He averaged 28.0 points and 7.4 assists against Utah in the Western Conference semifinals last season.

This is the second meeting between the two teams this season. The Jazz took down Houston 100-89 on October 24 behind 38 points on 14-of-25 shooting from Mitchell.

Mitchell has been highly effective on offense since returning from a two-game absence caused by a rib contusion. He is averaging 24.3 points per game over the last four contests and has shot better than 50 percent from the field in three of those games.
