Wizards vs. Jazz Best Bets

Jazz -6 (-108, DraftKings)

The Wizards are at the bottom of the league in nearly all offensive and defensive categories in 2024, with just nine wins on the season. Utah will be without Lauri Markkanen on Monday night, but they have more than enough power to win and cover this spread. The Jazz are scoring the ninth most points per game this season (117.5) while Washington is allowing the most in the NBA to opposing teams (124.6).

Risk 1.08 units on DraftKings to win 1 unit.

Wizards vs. Jazz Game Total Under 240 (-105, DraftKings)

The last time these two teams met, the total was 231 and that was with Lauri Markkanen dropping 29 points. While both teams have struggled defensively, their inconsistencies on offense plus the absence of Markkanen for Utah have me leaning the under here.

Risk 1.05 units on DraftKings to win 1 unit.
