Oddsmakers currently have the Warriors listed as 10-point favorites versus the Jazz, while the game’s total is sitting at 195.
The Warriors were a 112-96 winner in their most recent outing at home against the Pelicans. They covered the -13.5-point spread as favorites, while the total score (208) made winners of OVER bettors.
Golden State is riding an 11-game home winning streak and showed off its depth again Friday while winning easily despite being without Klay Thompson (ankle) and getting a 4-of-17 shooting effort from Stephen Curry. Harrison Barnes is picking up his level of play in two games without Thompson and totaled 47 points in those contests while going for 20 or more in back-to-back regular season games for the first time in his career. The Warriors might not need to rest any players on the back-to-back after holding everyone to 27 minutes or fewer Friday.

Utah squandered its hopes for a postseason spot with a 17-33 record through Feb. 6 but never quit on the season and has since gone 14-4. “I think this run has been good for us,” Gobert told the Salt Lake Tribune. “It’s important for us to get respect in the league. It’s important that we get respect from everyone, and that’s a big thing that’s important to us.” The Jazz allowed only one opponent to reach 100 points in those 18 games and are coming off an 80-73 win at the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday in which they blocked eight shots and recorded 11 steals.
