Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The Utah Jazz have been experiencing a slump lately, winning just one out of their last five games. This has been in no small part due to their underwhelming offense, scoring an average of 115.2 points overall and an even lower 113.6 points when playing at home. Against a defensively solid Denver Nuggets side, this trend could well continue.
