Why the Spurs can cover
San Antonio has won three of its last five games, opening its current homestand with a 118-105 win over Portland on Thursday. It was an extremely balanced effort from the Spurs, as they had eight players score in double figures. Small forward Keldon Johnson had 17 points and 11 rebounds in a double-double performance off the bench, while shooting guard Malaki Branham had 17 points as well.
They are now 3-1 in their home games this season, while Utah has lost seven of its first eight games this season. San Antonio cruised to a 106-88 win in Salt Lake City on Halloween in the first meeting between these teams, as Victor Wembanyama poured in 25 points to go along with nine rebounds, seven assists, five steals and five blocks. The Spurs have covered the spread in 14 of their last 20 games dating back to last season, including five of their last six home games. See which team to pick here.
Why the Jazz can cover
Utah snapped its season-opening six-game losing streak earlier this week, notching a 135-126 win at Chicago as a 7-point underdog. Shooting guard Keyonte George had 33 points and nine assists, while center John Collins had 28 points and 13 rebounds off the bench. Second-year center Walker Kessler added a double-double with 12 points and 16 rebounds on 6 of 7 shooting. George (foot) is listed as questionable for this one.
The Jazz are coming off a loss to the Bucks on Thursday, as Jordan Clarkson scored 18 points off the bench. Forward Lauri Markkanen returned to the lineup after missing three games with back spasms, scoring eight points on 3 of 10 shooting. He should have an improved performance on Saturday after knocking off the rust in that game. See which team to pick here.
