Game time: 02/24/2021 at 10:00 PM ET
Bet on the Utah Jazz at -8.5
This time, we are going with the public opinion as the Utah Jazz are without a doubt on fire. Furthermore, they will have the home advantage against a team that is in a rut and missing several key players. This is because the Lakers will be playing without Anthony Davis and Dennis Schroder. Furthermore, it is questionable whether Lebron James may not be able to play tonight. The Jazz will continue to dominate the court and we predict they will win with a final score of 121-109.
