Chicago Bulls vs Utah Jazz prediction

I'm not running to the window to lay points with the Chicago Bulls on the road, but there's not much of a choice here. The Utah Jazz have been a mess over the last month, they're not playing defense and Markkanen and Kessler have already been ruled out. Tough spot for the Jazz, even if they're at home. The Chicago Bulls are the healthier team, they've won 3 straight games against the Jazz, and they're still a profitable 31-28-1 ATS on the season. There are better games out there on the Wednesday NBA card, but if forced to pick, give me the Bulls on the road. The Jazz are too banged up.
