Spurs at Jazz picks and predictionsPrediction

Spurs 126, Jazz 118

PASS.

There’s no reason to consider a moneyline play. The Spurs (-700) are the far better side and should come out on top, but they aren’t worth 7 times your money here.

BET JAZZ +12.5 (-110).

There are a few notable trends to watch for. The Jazz have covered in 2 of their last 3 home games and in 4 of their last 6 contests. They have been on fire offensively, scoring at least 120 points in 5 of their last 6 contests.

The Spurs seem to have taken a slight step backward. They have tallied 107 points or fewer in 6 of their previous 9 games, going 4-5 ATS in that span. San Antonio has failed to cover 2 straight on the road.

Take JAZZ +12.5 (-110).

BET OVER 237.5 (-110).

The Jazz might know how to score, but they certainly don’t know how to defend. Utah has allowed at least 122 points in 5 games in a row, and it has given up at least 128 points in 3 of its last 7 contests, going 5-2 O/U in those.

The Spurs have scored 119 or more points in 3 of their last 4 games. Back OVER 237.5 (-110).
