Preview

Two of the best teams in the league will met when the Utah Jazz visit the Phoenix Suns on Sunday. These teams have met two times already this season and the Suns got the win in both games.

UTAH JAZZ

The Jazz have won 7 of their last 8 games but lost their last 3 on the road. The Jazz have gone 23-12 against Western Conference opponents. Utah scores 113.7 points and has outscored opponents by 6.8 points per game.

Mitchell is shooting 45.9% and averaging 25.9 points for the Jazz. Bojan Bogdanovic is averaging 17.5 points over the last 10 games for Utah.

In their last 10 games the Jazz are 7-3, averaging 113.6 points, 45.1 rebounds, 23.7 assists, 8.3 steals and 5.1 blocks per game while shooting 48.4% from the field. Their opponents have averaged 105.5 points.

PHOENIX SUNS

After winning 8 games in a row the Suns fell against the Pelicans 102-117. The Suns are 26-6 at home and are first in the Western Conference.

Chris Paul (out) is averaging 14.9 points, 10.7 assists and 1.9 steals for the Suns. Booker is averaging 25.6 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.6 assists over the last 10 games for Phoenix.

In their last 10 games, the Suns are 8-2, averaging 116.7 points, 46.4 rebounds, 30.1 assists, 8.6 steals and 4.8 blocks per game while shooting 49.8% from the field. Their opponents have averaged 108.7 points per game.

BETTING TRENDS

Utah are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games.

Utah are 0-6 SU in their last 6 games on the road.

Phoenix are 18-2 SU in their last 20 games.

The total has gone OVER in 6 of Phoenix's last 8 games.

Prediction

Phoenix Suns have been outstanding at home, they have lost only 6 of 32 games in Phoenix and they already beat the Jazz there, thing is they are without Chris Paul and although he's not a high scoring player he's one of the best in assists. Utah Jazz have struggled lately on the road but they have won 7 of their last 8 games and I think they'll know how to take advantage of Paul's absence. Take Utah.

PICK: Jazz ML (+105)
