Jazz at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 122, Jazz 111

Moneyline

The Jazz have struggled on the road this season. They are 2-11 in road games this season. Their win in Portland Thursday snapped a 6-game road losing streak.

The Kings are 8-3 on their home court.

That along makes the Kings the play on the moneyline, but because they are such heavy favorites, betting 4 1/2 times what you can win is not worth the action unless you include it as a leg of a parlay bet.

PASS.

Against the spread

The Kings beat the Jazz in their season opener 130-114.

Four of their last 5 wins have not been by double digits.

However, the Jazz's last 7 losses have been by double digits.

BET KINGS 9.5 (-110).

Over/Under

Their first meeting of the season had 244 total points and their last 3 have all had more than 240 total points.

Only 2 of the Jazz's last 12 games have surpassed 240 total points.

Five of the Kings' last 8 games have surpassed Saturday's projected total.

BET UNDER 239.5 (-110).
