The set-up: The Jazz are 4-1 and the Kings are 0-7. Neither team has been great offensively, with Utah averaging just 101 PPG, while the Kings have posted 98.6. Utah has the best defense in the league, while the Kings have one of the worst, allowing 115.6.

The pick: While neither side has played to many high-scoring affairs this season, I think that trend ends here. The desperate home side will be trying to push the pace from start to finish as it looks to get off the schneid. Utah doesn't have to play brilliant defense tonight to win this game either. Note as well that Utah has in fact seen the total go over in 16 of its last 25 as a road favorite of six points or less, while Sacramento has seen the total eclipse the posted number in four of its last five vs. good defensive teams which allow 98 points or less per contest. The situation and the numbers both point to this one going over before it's all said and done.

10* play on the OVER Jazz/Kings.
