Nuggets at Jazz picks and predictions

Prediction

Nuggets 129, Jazz 124

Moneyline

Both teams are playing well. The Nuggets (-275) have won 9 of their last 11, while the Jazz are 8-2 in their last 10 games.

The Jass are 11-5 at home this season, while the Nuggets are 11-8 on the road.

But the Nuggets have won their last 6 road games.

They are the more talented team and should win, but betting them on the ML at -275 doesn't make enough sense value-wise.

PASS.

In the 1st meeting Oct. 30, the Jazz covered as 9-point road underdogs in a 110-102 Nuggets win.
