Brooklyn always has a shot with a talent like Brook Lopez in the middle. He had 24 points on 9-of-17 and added eight rebounds in Wednesday's win at Sacramento as a dog. Lopez is getting a boost from point guard Jeremy Lin, who is back in the lineup after a lengthy absence due to a hamstring injury and scored 17 points in 20 minutes on Wednesday. Utah is home and favored, but prefers a slower pace, ranked #28 in the NBA in scoring. They've also lost two in a row and five-of-eight, losing the last two games as chalk. They come off a 107-80 setback at home to the Minnesota Timberwolves as a -6.5 favorite. Take Brooklyn on the moneyline for the huge upset.
