Point Spread: 7.50 | -102.00 Utah (Away)
Result: Win
The Utah Jazz will be a significant underdog on the road at Memphis tonight, but given Utah's competitive play in recent weeks, I like their chances of hanging with the Grizz tonight. Memphis is just 3-3 in it's last six overall, and I think it's asked to cover to great a number here tonight.
Here are my keys to the game:
1. Previous History - The Jazz have won six of their last eight overall, going 5-1-1 against the spread in those games. The Grizzlies on the other hand have failed to cover in seven of their last 11 overall.
2. Rudy Gobert - The 26 year old center has been one of Utah's most valuable players during a 6-2 run, averaging 3.5 blocked shots in those games. He's also been a beast on the boards, averaging over 10 rebounds per game during that span.
3. X-Factor - The Grizzlies have failed to cover in five straight games versus an opponent with a losing record.
Selection: This is a play on the Utah Jazz (10*)
