Brooklyn Nets vs Utah Jazz Prediction

I understand the Jazz have injuries, but they’re also at home with the rest advantage. The Jazz have seen 10 of their 15 wins this season come at home. The Nets look more and more like a team that’s in tank mode, and playing on the end of a back-to-back won’t help matters. The Jazz beat the Nets by 13 points on the road last month. Even in rough form, this line feels soft given the way the Nets are playing. I’ll lay the bucket with the Jazz.
