Utah has a winning record and comes off a tough two-game stretch at Milwaukee and Indiana, a pair of defeats. The good news is center Rudy Gobert (ankle) returned from a two-game absence and had 14 points, 13 rebounds against Indiana. The Utah defense is sixth in the NBA in field goal shooting allowed (43.2%), seventh in points surrendered. Even better news is they face a struggling Memphis bunch that has a losing record, including just 3-8 at home. Memphis has lost five in a row and for the season is allowing the third-most points in the league (118.5 pg) and ranked #20 in field goal shooting allowed (47%). The Grizzlies are 3-8 ATS when following a spread cover and NBA home underdogs that are being outscored by 6+ points per game are 39-77 ATS after allowing 105+ points in four straight contests. Play Utah.
