Cavaliers at Jazz: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Jazz 121, Cavaliers 99
Money line (ML)
No offense if you were thinking about the Jazz (-1400) on the money line, but it’s hacky to take a team favored by this much straight up. AVOID.

Against the spread (ATS)
The JAZZ -16 (-110) tuned up the Cavaliers in their first meeting Jan. 12 in Cleveland. They won 117-87 as 12-point favorites. You can expect a similar blood bath here, as the Jazz are legitimate contenders for the NBA title, while the Cavs are a lottery team.
Over/Under (O/U)
The UNDER 222.5 (-110) is the play here, even though the Jazz should score their fair share of points. The Cavs averaged just 92.0 points per game in their past two games against the Sacramento Kings and Los Angeles Lakers, and Cleveland hit the Under in each of its past four outings. Look for another one here.
