What: The Utah Jazz plays host to the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday in a game that will go a long way toward determining which of the two makes the Western Conference playoffs. The game on TNT starts at 9:30 p.m.

Why you should care: If the Jazz makes the playoffs, the Timberwolves get Utah's first-round choice in the 2012 draft.

The skinny: The Jazz is one game ahead of the Suns. A Utah victory would clinch a playoff spot for the Jazz.
