Utah hosts the Charlotte Hornets after the Jazz defeated the Brooklyn Nets 112-111 in overtime. The teams match up Wednesday for the first time this season.

It's only January, and neither the Utah Jazz nor the Charlotte Hornets are in a position to make a run at a playoff berth this season. Still, Wednesday's matchup in Salt Lake City could have some implications for the two teams this spring.

The Brooklyn Nets will remain without a key bench contributor for the remainder of their six-game road trip. Head coach Jordi Fernandez said Friday that Trendon Watford is unlikely to play during the West Coast swing. The 24-year-old has missed Brooklyn's last 12 games due to a left hamstring strain.

An upcoming two-game stretch against the Jazz and Trail Blazers could play a critical role in determining the Nets' draft position.
