The Utah Jazz aren’t nearly as hot as they were two weeks ago, but they’re still 26-13 against the spread on the season and they win in the favorite role by an average of 8.7 points. The Washington Wizards are looking more and more like the team we saw from the start of the season, they’re on the end of a back to back and they’re losing their last five games by an average of 11.2 points. Thick number, but it’s Jazz or pass for me.
