Expert Predictions:

  1. Jazz Moneyline (+320): Utah's 21-20 home record last season and Dallas's road struggles make this an attractive upset pick
  2. Klay Thompson Under 3.5 Made Threes (-142): Playing at altitude on tired legs suggests Thompson may struggle from deep

The Jazz, despite their poor start, have shown recent signs of life with wins over Chicago and San Antonio before falling to Phoenix. While Dallas has more star power with Doncic and Irving, fatigue and altitude could be significant factors in this matchup.
