Jazz at Warriors picks and predictions
Prediction
Warriors 131, Jazz 118
Moneyline
The Jazz have lost 11 straight games overall and 12 straight on the road. They have been eliminated from postseason contention, while the Warriors (-700) are fighting for seeding and perhaps trying to get to the No. 6 seed in order to avoid the play-in tournament.
Even with Curry resting, it isn’t enough to predict the Jazz will suddenly pull the upset over a Warriors team that has won 6 of 7.
But don’t bet the Warriors at -700. Those are terrible odds to bet.
PASS.
Against the spread
The Warriors covered the spread in both wins over Utah in February, although they were just 2.5- and 1-point favorites in those games.
The Warriors have covered the spread in 24 of their last 25 victories, while the Jazz have only covered the spread in 3 of their last 14 losses.
BET WARRIORS -11.5 (-115).
Over/Under
Both previous meetings had totals of 236 and 277.
The Jazz have allowed 127 points or more in 3 straight games.
BET OVER 226.5 (-110).
