Our Houston Rockets vs Utah Jazz Prediction
Houston is the significant favorite in this game; however, Utah looks to be the best betting option. As bad as Utah has been this season, they have not lost by 17+ much recently. In fact, even during their seven-game losing streak, the Jazz have lost by an average margin of 14.5 points per game, and they have only lost two of these games by more than 17 points.
Further, during the Rockets' four-game win streak, they have won by an average margin of 16.3 points per game. Houston has had success covering the spread against Utah this season, but with the point spread abnormally high, our Houston Rockets vs Utah Jazz prediction is: Utah Jazz +17.5.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
