Understanding Public and Money
Think of 'Public' as the percentage of people betting on each side and 'Money' as how much money is being bet. When there's a big difference between the 'Public' and 'Money' data, it usually means that the more serious bettors (referred to as 'Sharp Money') are favoring a particular side.

Mike's Analysis:
The Jazz are going to be shorthanded for this game with Donovan Mitchell (concussion), Rudy Gay (heel) and Hassan Whiteside (COVID-19) all out. They have a good overall record at home, but they are only 8-14 there ATS. The Rockets enter this matchup with a clean injury report, so I like them to stay at least somewhat competitive.
