The Utah Jazz are making a great playoff push thanks to some phenomenal play in front of their hometown fans. The Jazz, winners of seven in a row at Vivint Smart home Arena, will put that record on the line when they welcome the San Antonio Spurs to town in Thursday night NBA action. Utah has limited its opponents to 88.1 points and 40.8 percent shooting during the stretch.
- The Spurs are 10-0 SU in their last 10 games with no days off between games.
- The total has gone OVER in 21 of the Spurs' last 29 games against the Northwest Division.
- The total has gone OVER in five of the Spurs' last seven games against the Jazz.
Just how big would a win tonight be for the club? The Jazz have not won eight in a row in Salt Lake City since 2010. The Spurs are a team that’s given Quin Snyder’s bunch headaches this season, however, as San Antonio won the first two meetings between the squads by a combined 62 points while shooting 58.4 percent from the field and 42.9 percent from beyond the arc.
When these teams collide, OVER bettors are laughing all the way to the bank. The OVER has paid out in five of the last seven meetings between the Jazz and Spurs. The total has also gone OVER in seven of the Jazz’s past eight after losing the previous game in a matchup.
At the time of writing the total for the game was off the board, but oddsmakers opened the Jazz as 3-point home dogs. Utah backers will be pleased to know the team is 3-1 SU and ATS in their last four when facing teams with winning records.
