Two of the best defensive teams in the NBA clash in this one. Utah is fourth in points allowed, but the offense is #22 in points scored, #23 from long range, and #26 from the charity stripe. Utah is on an 8-1 run UNDER the total, 10-4 UNDER against teams with a winning percentage above .600. They face a tough Toronto defense that is ninth in points allowed, eighth in field goal defense, and sixth at defending beyond the arc. Toronto is 8-3 UNDER when playing on one day of rest and this shapes up as an all-out defensive battle. Play this one to finish UNDER the posted total.
