3* Western Conference *BEST BET* on Jazz +12
The Jazz are being undervalued here because they are coming off a 25-point loss and are matched up against an opponent checking in off a 22-point win. Utah, which was held to 32.2% shooting by a motivated Lakers squad last night, should fare better here against a Denver team not known for its defense.
This is a solid spot to back the Jazz considering they are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games after scoring less than 75 points in their previous game and 8-3-1 ATS in their last 12 games following a loss of more than 10 points.
Utah has won 2 of the last 3 in this series with the lone loss coming by just 2 points. Take the Jazz.
