The Raptors continue their seven-game road trip with game No. 5 in Utah on Wednesday night against the Jazz. Tip-off is set for 9:00 PM ET at Vivint Arena for the first meeting between these two teams this NBA season. Both franchises have fallen off a bit in recent weeks and will be looking to get their seasons back on track. Let’s take a look at my best bets for tonight’s matchup.

Raptors vs. Jazz Best Bets
Utah Jazz -3 (-110 DraftKings)
Toronto continues to be short-handed with Otto Porter Jr and OG Anunoby both on the shelf, while the Jazz are much healthier heading into this contest. Utah is scoring nearly five more points per game this season (117.5 to 112.8), thanks to solid shooting from the three (36.8%) which sits 11th in the NBA, and 41.9% in their last three games which ranks sixth in the association.
Utah is 4-1 ATS in their last five home games and 5-2 ATS in their last seven contests overall. Depth plays a major factor in this pick as the bench for the Jazz averages 40.2 points per game which is the fourth-highest in the NBA, and they can put away this Raptors squad.
Risk: 1.1 units on DraftKings to win 1 unit. (Playable to -120)
