Toronto Raptors vs Utah Jazz Prediction

The Raptors go on a bit of a winning stretch and now most of their team is on the injury report. We’re seeing this around the league with teams not wanting to make the play-in tournament, so everybody ends up with ankle and knee issues at the same time. Surprisingly, the Jazz have most of their team off the injury report. That’s why this line is what it is. Still, I’m not laying points with a Jazz team that hasn’t won a game since February 28 and has just 15 wins on the season. It just feels strange. The Raptors are the better team and they’ve played with more effort over the last month. It’s the Raptors or pass regardless of what the injury report says.
