Utah Jazz vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction
Don’t look now, but the Nets have won back-to-back games, cashing big underdog tickets. The Jazz are going to be favored because they’re the better team on paper and have the rest advantage with the Nets playing last night. However, the Jazz aren’t that much better, and they’re 1-7 SU on the road. This will be just the 21st time since 2024 where the Jazz are favored. This isn’t a good team and I have no interest in laying points. We’ve hit on the Nets in back-to-back games. I’ll go back to the well. Give me the bucket.
