Utah Jazz vs Phoenix Suns Prediction

The Suns should be big favorites at home and with the rest advantage, but I’m not laying this number with a banged-up team that’s lost 8 of their last 10 games. The Jazz aren’t trying to win and played last night, but they compete just to throw the game late. As I continue to say, the Jazz doesn’t win, but they’ve cashed 38 tickets. The Suns are one of the better cover teams in the league, but they’re in awful form right now and I’m not laying this much chalk. Give me the Jazz and the points.
