Jazz at Thunder picks and predictionsPrediction

Thunder 135, Jazz 108

AVOID.

The Thunder still have to fend off the Spurs to secure the top seed in the West, so there’s little doubt that they’ll handily beat a Jazz team that has lost 12 of their last 13 games. Still, betting Oklahoma City to cover the spread is much safer.

BET THUNDER -23.5 (-115).

Utah gave the Thunder a scare in their last matchup, but Oklahoma City won with ease during the first 2 games. The Jazz are 4-6 against the spread over their last 10 games, and the Thunder are 5-5.

BET OVER 239.5 (-110).

These teams have hit the Over in 2 of their 3 matchups against each other this season. The Jazz are 7-3 in favor of the Over during their last 10 games, and the Thunder are 5-5 during that span.
