Utah is 3-2 SU and ATS and playing only its second home game of the season. Alec Burks and Derrick Favors both are averaging 15.2 points per game with Favors pulling down 7.6 rebounds. Favors has been battling the flu but is probable for tonight's game. The Jazz beat Denver 96-84 on Thursday and Favors didn't play the second half. The Jazz are shooting 42.5 percent from the field this season but holding opponents to just 41.0 percent. Gordon Hayward scored 20 points and Rudy Gobert was a force on the boards grabbing 16 rebounds in the win over the Nuggets. Memphis is 3-3 and 2-4 ATS this season and 1-5 ATS the last six meetings with Utah. This is the fourth road game in six days for the Grizzlies, who started the trip with a 50-point loss at Golden State. Memphis lost 115-96 against Portland on Thursday as the Blazers shot 50.6 percent from the field and 50.0 percent from beyond the arc. Now the Grizzlies have to play another road game and in altitude. Take the Jazz at home.
