Denver at Utah

The Utah Jazz have opened the season in a nightmare as they remain the NBA's only winless team. They host the Denver Nuggets to try to put one in the win column after opening the season with seven straight defeats. The good news is that since 1996 teams that have started the season 0-7 have covered 57.9% of all games. The better news may be the fact that Denver is a 2-point win away from being 0-5 themselves, and they have yet to win a game on the road this season, and are not playing very well. The Nuggets have road losses at Sacramento, and Phoenix, and despite the record, Utah is always problematic at home. The Nuggets are now 1-10 ATS following an ATS loss, and the Jazz are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 vs. a team with a losing record. Take Utah.
