Raptors at Jazz: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Jazz 123, Raptors 106
Money line (ML)
The Jazz (-350) will cost you three and a half times your potential return. That's too expensive, even if the Raptors (+260) are resting Lowry and have very little interest in winning this game.
AVOID.

Against the spread (ATS)
The JAZZ -7.5 (-110) are a great play at home. Yes, they were routed by 21 in Phoenix on Friday, but they are just two games removed from a 154-105 blowout win against the Sacramento Kings.
They have had some difficult times lately, but the Raptors +7.5 (-110) are really struggling and won't keep this within single digits.
Over/Under (O/U)
OVER 222.5 (-110) is the play here, going 16-7 in Toronto's last 23 games on the road while hitting in eight of its last 11 against teams with a winning overall record.
The Over is also 7-3 in the past 10 meetings between these teams in Salt Lake City.
