Why The Warriors Could Cover The Spread

The Golden State Warriors are one of the best teams in the NBA. They have overcome injuries and adversity and have not only managed to win games but to dominate. Through their first 54 matches, they have an impressive 41 victories and only 13 losses. Their most recent win came against the Oklahoma City Thunder by 12. Golden State may have been facing lighter opponents recently, but a win's a win. The Warriors will look to carry that same energy and momentum into a tough matchup on Wednesday. The Jazz are a good team, but the Warriors are better.

The Warriors significantly underperformed in their win over OKC. What that win showed was how even when no particular player is having a stellar night on Golden State, they have more than enough depth and talent to make up for it. The Warriors are often thought of as being led by superstars who put up huge numbers, but if this regular season has shown us anything it's that they are so much more. Nine players contributed double-digit playing time and five of them scored double-digit points. Curry may be the face of the team, but he is not the only part of it.

The only thing holding this Warriors team back is injuries. Currently, Golden State has six players listed on their injury report. Only Kevon Looney is questionable for Wednesday's match. Klay Thompson, Andre Iguodala, and James Wiseman are all out with injuries. These injuries are devastating to the Warriors, especially to Klay Thompson who only recently made his highly anticipated return. The Warriors will likely lean heavily on Curry in this matchup, and if he goes off then they could end up pulling this win off.

Why The Jazz Could Cover The Spread

The Utah Jazz have been a very solid team this year. More than most, they have had to deal with injuries and adapt to a changing roster. Through their first 54 games, they have managed to win 33 and lose 21. They are coming off a solid nine-point victory over the New York Knicks. Utah is finally gaining momentum and starting to return to full health. If the Jazz can maintain their level of play then they could end up taking down the vulnerable Warriors. There's a reason Utah is favorited in this match, expect the Jazz to come in ready for battle.

There's a very clear turning point for this Jazz team, the return of Donovan Mitchell. Mitchell is the face of the franchise and his return for these past two games has been vital. Against the Nets, Mitchell dropped 27 points in 22 minutes. Against the Knicks, he had 32 points in 36 minutes. To say that the Jazz missed their all-star would be an understatement. Mitchell elevates the level of play of everyone around him and provides Utah with an offense that it was severely lacking. If Mitchell can continue to play the way he has been, then the Jazz should be able to topple the Warriors.

While Mitchell's return has been impactful, Utah fans are still eagerly awaiting for Rudy Gobert to come back. Gobert is one of three Jazz players listed on the injury report. Rudy Gay is listed as questionable for Wednesday's match. The Jazz are mostly healthy, but being without Gobert is still significant. Once the big man makes his return this Jazz team will likely take off. In the meantime, they will have to rely on Mitchell to lead the way against Golden State. The Jazz are a good team and definitely could notch another win on Wednesday.

Final Warriors-Jazz Prediction & Pick

This is a tough pick. The Warriors are a great team, but they are crippled right now. Utah, on the other hand, is starting to gain some real momentum and might just be able to pull off this win. They're slight favorites, and this game will likely go down to the wire. Golden State could end up winning if Curry just has a monster night, which is certainly possible, but betting on that to happen seems like a losing play. Instead, side with the Jazz. Pick Utah to win and cover.
