Utah is a big dog at a San Antonio team that coasts too often and has been erratic. It's been because of injuries as San Antonio's projected starting lineup of Parker, Leonard, Splitter, Tim Duncan, and Danny Green played together once, for eight minutes on Nov. 5th, before Friday's game. San Antonio is 3-7 ATS following a win and 0-4 ATS at home against a team with a losing road record. Utah is improving, 5-1 ATS on the road and 16-5 ATS playing on one days rest. They're allowing an average of 93.9 points on 43.3 percent shooting in their last 15 games, compared to 102.3 points and 48.3 percent in their first 25 under coach Quin Snyder. The only team to score 100 against them in the past five games was league-best Golden State, the NBA's highest-scoring team. Utah is 7-0 UNDER the total on the road and on an 11-2 run UNDER the total overall. Utah has averaged 10.6 steals in those five games, nearly four above its season average. The Jazz is 6-1 ATS on the road against a team with a winning home record. And when these teams meet, Utah is 5-2 ATS. San Antonio is 10th in the NBA in points allowed and field goal shooting defense. Play Utah and the game UNDER the total.
