Pacers at Jazz picks and predictions
Prediction
Jazz 115, Pacers 113
PASS.
While playable, avoid this wager. Despite the predicted outcome, the better value is on the spread.
BET JAZZ +2.5 (-105).
The Jazz have been a completely different team at home than on the road. They are 2-2 straight up at home (4-0 ATS) and 1-5 on the road (2-4 ATS). Utah’s offense has also been far better, scoring at least 113 points in all 4 home games.
On the other hand, the Pacers will be on their third road game, having faced Golden State and the Denver Nuggets on the road prior. Those games resulted in 31- and 17-point losses, respectively. Indiana is 0-5 straight up and 2-3 ATS on the road.
Considering those trends, back JAZZ +2.5 (-105) to keep it close at home.
BET UNDER 232.5 (-110).
Neither team has played well offensively, and that shouldn’t change Tuesday. The Pacers have gone Under in 5 straight games, scoring 115 or fewer points in all but 1 game this season.
The Jazz haven’t been much better. They are 4-6 O/U on the season and 1-5 O/U in their last 6 contests. Utah has tallied 113 points or fewer in 7 of 10 games. Back UNDER 232.5 (-110).
