Jazz at Spurs picks and predictionsPrediction
Spurs 124, Jazz 103
PASS.
There is no value on the Spurs (-1100) to win at home.
LEAN SPURS -16.5 (-110).
The Jazz are struggling too much and dealing with too many injuries to compete in this matchup. They have failed to cover in 3 of their last 5 games, losing each of those matchups by 18 or more, including a 55-point loss 9 days ago.
The Spurs have covered in 4 of their last 6 and were able to thwart a 55-point performance from Anthony Edwards in the 126-123 win over Minnesota in their most recent game. Expect them to have their first meeting against the Jazz — a 13-point loss — on their minds, fueling them to a major victory.
BET UNDER 240.5 (-110).
The Spurs have hit the Under in 8 of their last 9 games, allowing 106 or fewer in 5 of their last 7 while scoring 107 or fewer in 5 of their last 7.
Without their top scorers, the Jazz managed 120 points on 54% shooting from the field last game, a feat that will be unattainable against a defense-heavy Spurs team.
