The Portland Trail Blazers head to Salt Lake City to face the Utah Jazz tonight.
Utah returned from a five-game road trip to hammer Sacramento last night, and my Blazers vs. Jazz predictions expect that momentum to continue.
Here are my best free NBA picks for this clash on Thursday, February 12.
Trail Blazers vs Jazz prediction
Trail Blazers vs Jazz best bet: Jazz +7.5 (-105)
The Portland Trail Blazers are 3-7 both straight up and against the spread over their last 10 games and fell 133-109 in Minnesota on Wednesday. Meanwhile, the Utah Jazz are 6-0 ATS over their last six games.
Both teams are on the second night of a back-to-back, but it’s far easier to stay home than travel and play at altitude. Utah’s activity at the trade deadline signaled its intent to remain competitive, and rookie Ace Bailey is starting to flash his potential, averaging 16.1 points over his last 12 contests.
Take the team with more momentum catching points at home.

Trail Blazers vs Jazz same-game parlay
The total of 239 looks too high when you factor in recent form and the likelihood that both teams will be without their second-leading scorers — Keyonte George (23.8 ppg) and Shaedon Sharpe (21.4 ppg).
Lauri Markannen leads the Jazz with 26.7 ppg. He poured in 19 points in just 21 minutes during last night’s blowout win and should log heavier minutes in what projects to be a more competitive matchup.
