Thunder at Jazz picks and predictions

Prediction

Thunder 131, Jazz 124

Moneyline

The Thunder are 15-9 on the road and have won 3 of their last 4 road games. The Jazz are 16-7 at home but have lost 3 of their last 4 game at Delta Center, including a 135-129 loss to the Thunder on Jan. 18. They have dropped 6 of their last 9 overall.

But the best play is not the Thunder on the moneyline. You get better value with an ATS wager.

PASS.

Against the spread

Nineteen of the Thunder's last 20 wins have been by more than 3 points. They beat the Jazz by 5 in Salt Lake last month.

The Jazz have failed to cover the spread in 5 of their last 6 losses.

The Thunder are 5-3 ATS in their last 8 wins and 4-1 in their last 5 road games

BET THUNDER -2.5 (-115).

Over/Under

Both meetings this season between the 2 teams had totals of 254 or more. Six of the Jazz' last 10 games have surpassed the projected total for this game.
