Expert Picks:
- Jazz moneyline (+320)
- Klay Thompson under 3.5 made threes (-142)
Reasoning: Utah's 21-20 home record last season and Dallas's road fatigue make the Jazz an attractive underdog pick. Thompson's three-point shooting has been inconsistent, hitting more than three triples only twice in his last eight games.
