Portland at Utah

Premium Pick

The Utah Jazz are suddenly looking like a tired team, and the All-Star break can't come fast enough for this team. Utah's success this season has been built on defense as they have allowed an opponent to top the 111 point mark just four times all season, but two of those have come in their last three games. Portland has not played great, but better as they have been a .500 team over their last 10 games, while the Jazz have been a below .500 team over their last 11. Season stats make this game and line appear correct, but when you look at these teams heading to the All-Star break, they certainly have been a lot closer. Take the points on Portland.

1.5 units on Portland +8.5 (-107) (risk 1.5 to return 2.9)
