NBA Saturday Utah Jazz vs Miami Heat: Start Time, Odds


The Utah Jazz continue their four game road swing tonight with a stop in Miami to face the defending champion Heat. Start time in this evening’s meeting between the Jazz and Heat is 7:30pm ET at the AmericanAirlines Arena. NBA Saturday Utah Jazz vs Miami Heat betting odds have LeBron James and company listed as -9 against the spread home favorites; the game total is set at 201 points.

The Jazz have maintained an above .500 record in the season’s early going, but they have done so in spite some horrendous road play. Utah is a meager 5-11 away from home and it fell to 14-13 overall on Wednesday night after the Pacers put a 104-84 beating on Tyrone Corbin’s troops at the Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

The Jazz are long shots to register a sixth road win this evening and for good reason. The 17-6 Heat, winners in five of their last six games, is awfully hard to beat at the AmericanAirlines Arena.

Miami owns a 12-2 record as a host and it has outpaced its opposition by an average of 9.1 points per game at home (tied for fourth best mark in the league). Conversely, Utah presently ranks 16th in the NBA with a -1.9 road scoring differential.

The Jazz really only have one thing to feel good about as they head into tonight’s showdown with the Heat. Utah is 3-1 in its last four meetings with Miami and it averaged a whopping 111 points per game in those three victories. The Heat are 5-1 in their last six home games hosting Utah, though (outscored the Jazz by an average of 12.6 points per contest in the five wins).

Utah Jazz vs Miami Heat NBA Odds:

Utah Jazz +9 (-110), Over 201 (-110)

Miami Heat -9 (-110), Under 201 (-110)
