Jazz at Cavaliers picks and predictions
Prediction
Cavaliers 123, Jazz 103
Moneyline
PASS.
The Cavaliers are 8-1 in their last 9 games, while the Jazz are 3-7 in their last 10. However, laying -1100 on the ML is unrealistic.
Against the spread
BET CAVALIERS -14.5 (-105).
Utah is just 2-3 ATS in its last 5 games and 0-3 ATS in its last 3 as a double-digit underdog.
Cleveland is 5-1 ATS in its last 6 games, including 3-0 ATS in its last 3. It has allowed 105 or fewer points in 4 straight games.
Over/Under
BET UNDER 232.5 (-110).
Cleveland has limited opponents to 111 or fewer points in 7 of their last 9 games. While its offense has been equally as impressive, its defense has imposed its will.
The Jazz have scored 107 or fewer points in 3 of their last 5 games and will continue to struggle Monday.
