*10* play on Utah Jazz.

The Utah Jazz opened a six-game home-stand with a 95-92 loss to Detroit Monday but they rebounded with a 102-73 massacre of the Hornets two days later. The Minnesota Timberwolves have arguably been the worst team in the NBA lately with only three wins since Dec. 21. I think they'll struggle in Salt Lake City tonight.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Utah's Defense - The Jazz have held their last three opponents to an average of 84.7 points per game and their 96.8 mark for the season is among the best in the league.

2. 3-Point Shooting - Minnesota is last in the league for three points made with 5.0 per game and it's 9-for-30 from outside the perimeter in its last three. Utah rank in the middle of the pack with an average of 8.5 and made 12-of-30 3-point attempts Wednesday.

3. X-Factor - The Jazz are 6-2 ATS in their last eight at home while the Timberwolves are 2-5 ATS in their last seven on the road.

Selection: This is a play on the Utah Jazz (10*)
