The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Utah's last 5 games.
Dallas are 2-4 ATS in their last 6 games.
Dallas are 10-4 SU in their last 14 games.
Prediction
These are two elite defenses, the Mavericks are allowing only 102.8 ppg at home while the Jazz are allowing 106.8 ppg in their last 10 games. With the Jazz struggling to score lately and the Mavs playing good at home I think the play here is Mavericks and the Under.
