Washington has missed the presence of Bradley Beal in the lineup, but he did return to action against the Pistons.<\/p>\n<p>Chicago continues to press on with the loss of Derrick Rose for the foreseeable future with losses in two of its last three games both SU and ATS. The Bulls dropped a 96-86 decision to the Los Angeles Clippers this past Sunday as two-point home underdogs. <\/p>\n<p>They are now just 12-19 ATS at home this season. <\/p>\n<p>Another injury concern for Tuesday night is Jimmy Butler\u2019s elbow, which was hyper-extended in that loss to the Clippers.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63727&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>This matchup will come down to which team wants it more among two ball clubs that are in desperate need of a win. <\/p>\n<p>Look for defense to dictate the pace of play in a game that stays UNDER the closing total line.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Game 2: Utah Jazz at Memphis Grizzlies<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Pointspread: Memphis -8.5<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Total Line: 182.5<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/capperspicks.sportsdirectinc.com\/basketball\/nba-matchups.aspx?page=\/data\/NBA\/matchups\/g5_summary_7.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">Matchup<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/capperspicks.sportsdirectinc.com\/basketball\/nba-preview.aspx?page=\/data\/NBA\/matchups\/g5_preview_7.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">Preview<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Utah is on the outside looking in as far as the Western Conference playoffs at 23-35 SU on the year, but it has been making some noise lately with a SU 6-2 record in its last eight games while going a highly profitable 7-1 ATS. The Jazz beat Milwaukee this past Saturday 82-75 as 3.5-point home favorites. <\/p>\n<p>This followed a 104-82 road win over Denver as 4.5-point favorites the night before. Utah is just 10-19 SU on the road this season, but this record improves dramatically ATS to 17-11-1.<\/p>\n<p>The Grizzlies are in a heated battle for the top spot in the West at 42-16 SU on the year, while going an even 28-28-2 ATS. They snapped a two-game skid (SU and ATS) with Saturday\u2019s 101-97 victory against Minnesota, but after failing to cover as 5.5-point road favorites, they are just 3-6 ATS in their last nine games. <\/p>\n<p>On the year, Memphis has been one of the better home teams in the league at 23-6 SU, but it has failed to cover in 15 of those 29 games.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63741&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>The Grizzlies have a huge showdown against Houston on the slate this Wednesday night which puts Utah in great position to catch them looking past Tuesday night\u2019s game. I do not see the Jazz getting the SU win, but I really like their chances to cover with the 8.5 points.<\/p>\n<h3>Check out our\u00a0<a title=\"NBA Betting Odds\" href=\"https:\/\/capperspicks.sportsdirectinc.com\/odds\/nba.aspx\" rel=\"nofollow\">Updated NBA Betting Odds<\/a>.<\/h3>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=64991&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NBA Weekly Free Parlay Picks I nailed last Tuesday\u2019s parlay with plays on Cleveland and Oklahoma City and to keep things rolling I have turned my attention to two more games on this Tuesday\u2019s NBA slate.
