Our Milwaukee Bucks vs Utah Jazz Prediction
The Bucks have begun to cool recently and will have to make do without Damian Lillard for this match. The Jazz, on the other hand, have been going under the radar but are playing some of their best basketball of the season and were very impressive in taking down a solid 76ers last time out. The hosts should get the win at home here, but with a hefty line, we fancy the visitors to keep it close. Our Milwaukee Bucks vs Utah Jazz prediction: Utah Jazz +9.5.
