Utah's Donovan Mitchell is the first rookie to score 27+ points in his 1st 2 playoff appearances, helping his team tie 1-1 in the first round of the 2018 NBA Playoffs against Oklahoma City. The line on this game was Jazz -5 after opening at -4. The NBA Betting Power Ratings indicate a line of just over -2.
The Jazz have improved dramatically over the second portion of this season, getting the job done in advancing to the Playoffs where the Heat could not last year when they attempted a similar turnaround. Oklahoma City has gone 7-3 against Utah in their last ten meetings.
Utah winning the 2018 NBA Championship would pay $6600 on a $100 bet.
The UNDER is 8-0 in the last 8 meeting in Utah and 22-8 in the last 30 meetings.
