There is an interesting storyline in this Western Conference matchup. On one side you have the Kings, who have been one of the best road teams in the NBA this season from a betting perspective. The Kings are 23-12 against the spread on the road, covering at a 65% clip in this spot. On the other side, the Utah Jazz are a perfect 9-0 against the spread as a home underdog this season. One key note to consider on the injury front, Lauri Markkanen, Jordan Clarkson, and Collin Sexton are out for the Jazz. The Kings have Kevin Huerter and Trey Lyles listed as questionable, but those two players are far less significant than the Jazz injuries. One other important note to consider, the Kings are playing back to back games the next two days, with the Celtics coming into town tomorrow. This could be a look ahead spot for the Kings eyeing a bigger game tomorrow. The Jazz have decent depth on their roster, but it will be interesting to see where the scoring comes from tonight with three top scorers out. A lot of money has come in on the Kings given the Jazz injury report, yet the line hasn't reacted a whole lot. The Jazz have several talented young players who will have an opportunity at an expanded role tonight. Role players tend to play better behind a home crowd, as do young players. Our wager is a half unit on the Utah Jazz to move to a perfect 10-0 ATS as home underdogs.
