The Utah Jazz travel to San Antonio, TX to take on the Spurs on Friday night. This is the third time these teams face off this season and they're tied 1-1.

INJURIES: Bogdanovic (leg) is out Friday against the Spurs

SAN ANTONIO SPURS

San Antonio has lost 5 of the last 6 games and is 25-41 overall ranking 12th in the Western Conference and they're 12-20 at home. They're coming from a loss against the Raptors. Keldon Johnson had 27 points for San Antonio, and Murray added 25 points, 12 assists and nine rebounds.

Murray is averaging 20.6 points, 8.4 rebounds, 9.4 assists and 2.1 steals for the Spurs. Lonnie Walker IV is averaging 18.9 points and 2.6 rebounds while shooting 50.4% over the last 10 games for San Antonio.

In their last 10 games the Spurs are 4-6, averaging 118.8 points, 43.2 rebounds, 28.9 assists, 7.1 steals and 4.3 blocks per game while shooting 48.8% from the field. Their opponents have averaged 121.1 points per game.

BETTING TRENDS

Utah are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games.

Utah are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games on the road.

San Antonio are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games.

The total has gone UNDER in 4 of San Antonio's last 5 games at home.

Prediction

The Utah Jazz are one of the best teams in the league they have the #5 offense and #10 defense in the NBA. They're allowing 107.9 ppg in their last 10 games. The Jazz don't have a good record ATS this season because of the crazy high spreads they get. This is a considerable number the only problem is they'll be without Bogdanovic. The Spurs are 1-1 against Utah this season, I think they can keep it close and cover the spread.

PICK: Spurs +6 (-110)
