The Jazz draw another tough matchup as they get the Clippers on the second night of a back-to-back. I'm expecting Derrick Favors to sit tonight for the Jazz after popping up with knee soreness after last night's loss. The Jazz, like many teams, have made it very clear they will be resting the older players at times this season. The Jazz are hungry for a win, but the Clippers are in a better position to win this one. My simulations agree as I make the Clippers -5.2 road favorites.

This is a tough spot for the Jazz, who just lost to one of the best defensive teams in the league Thursday in the Suns. Outside of their season-opening win of the season, the Jazz haven’t really impressed, also losing to the Timberwolves, while defeating the rebuilding Thunder by only one point. There shouldn’t be any rest issues for the Clippers here with this not being a back-to-back game situation, so look for Kawhi and company to cover on their way to a win.
