Indiana Pacers vs Utah Jazz Prediction & Match Preview - November 11th, 2021 | NBA Season 2021-22

The Indiana Pacers will lock horns with the Utah Jazz in an exciting regular-season game at Vivint Arena on Thursday. A win in this game would give both teams a much-needed boost in the tough round of fixtures coming forward.

Meanwhile, the Utah Jazz came into the game against Indiana on the back of an impressive 110-98 win against the Atlanta Hawks. Donovan Mitchell scored 27 points on the night on 55% shooting from the field. He will be hoping to inspire the Jazz team to another brilliant performance against the Pacers at home on Thursday.
