Free Utah Jazz vs. Portland Trail Blazers NBA Prediction:
Portland has something to prove coming off a close, dare I say gut-wrenching loss to the Kyrie-less Brooklyn Nets on Thursday night. But, dare I say it—the Jazz have more to prove.
This one should come down to the wire on Portland’s home court, but I’m picking the underdog against the spread…and on the moneyline.
Utah in a close one straight up.
