Utah Jazz vs Sacramento Kings NBA Preview
The Jazz absolutely demolished the Clippers on Wednesday, and it was a great win for a team with low expectations this year.
That was their home opener, and now they’re on the road for Sac’s home opener, coming off a tough loss to the Suns.
Sacramento gets back Domantas Sabonis — most likely, upgraded to questionable — and this Jazz squad is a young team trying to get a road win after a blowout.
I make this Kings -9.8 with Sabonis back, and think they win and cover vs. a Jazz team more talented than people realize, but still a rebuilding team.
