Utah has a winning record both home and away, keyed by defense. Utah is tops in the NBA in points allowed, second in field goal shooting defense. The Jazz are 9-4-1 ATS when their opponent allows 100 points or more in their previous game. Toronto is home from a grueling six-game trip and they have to head out on the road again after this game. Utah went 3-3 on the six-game trip and dropped to 0-6 against top teams when they lost to Cleveland, Golden State and San Antonio. Underdog Utah is 7-3 ATS at Toronto and look for that great defense to keep this one close. Back Utah.
