After a 3-2 start on the season the Kings have lost seven of their last 10 games. It also sounds like Luke Walton may be on the hot seat. Sacramento has one ATS win in its last seven games. That win was a blowout over the lowly Detroit Pistons. Just last night the Kings lost by 19 to the Toronto Raptors.
The Jazz look to have turned it on over the course of the last two games. In their last two outings, Utah beat the 76ers and Raptors by a combined 51 points. One of the things I like about betting on the Jazz is when they get hot like they are now. When they’re playing like this, they tend to go on long winning streaks. Utah is in a good rest spot and should handle the Kings tonight.
Utah is 9-6 ATS on the year. This season as home Underdogs, the Kings are 0-3 ATS. The Jazz should score you an easy ATS victory to close your Saturday Night.
Edge: Jazz -8
