One of the biggest surprises of the 2023-2024 NBA season has been the Oklahoma City Thunder. At 47-20, they are the top team in the Western Conference and have been led by some of the top young talent in the game. MVP candidate, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is leading the way with 30.9ppg while 2nd year star Jalen Williams is putting up 19.2ppg. Not to be outdone, rookie Chet Holmgren is doing his best to win rookie of the year. Holmgren’s 16.8ppg and 7.9rpg line is only outdone by the Spurs’s Wembanyama. While the Thunder have been relishing their season with their youngesters, the Jazz have struggled and find themselves 10 games under .500. They have lost 4 of their last 5 by an average of 16.5 points. Lauri Markkanen has been doing all he can to help his Jazz but the lack of depth on their bench has been their primary problem. They have lost their last 4 road games and this one is sure to be yet another loss. The number for the Thunder to cover is an extremely large one but for good reason.

Our Oklahoma City Thunder vs Utah Jazz Prediction

The Thunder have been 15+ favorites twice this season and in both of those games, they covered the spread. Maybe it is the fact that they are young that makes them keep their foot on their gas which is necessary to cover these large numbers. That combined with the fact that the Jazz have been losing at an average clip that is over this number makes us believe the Thunder will be the right side here.
