Why Bet on the Utah Jazz?

Utah hits the road with a healthy lineup. Finnish forward Lauri Markkanen just led his team to victory in a 31-point and 11-rebound performance. Jordan Clarkson and Mike Conley Jr. are the two starters that scored double-digits, while Malik Beasley, Colin Sexton, and Talen Horton-Tucker put in 18, 15, and 13 points, respectively, off the bench. There’s depth and consistency in this team that could trouble the Mavs in their first meeting of the season.

The Jazz is the tenth-best scoring team in the league, averaging 117.5 points per game. They accomplished this with 46.0% shooting, hitting 36.3% of their shots from deep and 53.8% from the two-point range. Defensively, the franchise holds opponents to 113.6 points on an impressive 45.6% opponent shooting. They are one of the better two-way teams in the league and are reliable under pressure with two wins in four road games.

Why Bet on the Dallas Mavericks?

Luka Doncic produced a season-high game against the Magic in his last game. The Serbian baller scored 44 points on top of three rebounds and two assists. Tim Hardaway Jr. provided support and scored 21 points off the bench, while Dorian Finney-Smith drained 13 points in 29 minutes. These three players are likely to take the offensive lead come Wednesday night.

The Mavs are just as active on both ends of the floor as their opponents. In fact, Dallas can impose itself on the Jazz with home advantage in play. As a team, the Mavs average 117.8 points per game on 47.6% shooting. They dominate the short-range and hold a third-best league average of 57.2% two-point shooting while maintaining a respectable 36.0% shooting from deep. Defensively, the Mavs limit opponents to 110.5 points per game and 48.1% shooting. The squad puts up a strong three-point defense and keeps opponents under 33.3% from deep.

Jazz vs. Mavericks Expert Betting Prediction

The Utah Jazz has been one of the better teams in the league and they step inside the American Airlines Center with plenty of confidence after back-to-back wins against the Grizzlies. Meanwhile, the Mavericks still try to find their footing this season and they will be short-handed as Frank Ntilikina and Davis Bertans are out of the picture while Christian Wood remains questionable. The numbers favor the Mavericks in this matchup, but covering the spread shouldn’t be much of a problem for the visitors. Expect Utah to keep things close at the end and even pull off a cheeky underdog victory if the Mavs fail to hit their stride.
