Phoenix at Utah

Utah has worked hard to become a potential playoff team. After being a single game over .500, they have won seven straight to move to 38-30 on the season. The Jazz are also 19-2 over their last 21 contests. Needless to say, they are in a letdown spot vs. the worst team in the NBA in the Phoenix Suns who enter at 19-50. The Suns take advantage of their unmotivated opponents, and have covered their last two as a double-digit dog, including a game right here in Utah at +11, and getting even more points now. Over the past three seasons, Phoenix is 54-37 ATS when following a double-digit loss including 22-10 ATS if that loss came at home. They are also 44-30 ATS dating back to last season after an ATS loss. This is a good opportunity for a back-door cover, especially with Booker's status upgraded to probable. Take the points on Phoenix as my March NBA Game of the Month.
