Eric Walden of the Salt Lake Tribune reports that Utah could be without as many as three players for Tuesday’s game against the Thunder. Joe Ingles and Royce O’Neal have already been ruled out, while Jordan Clarkson is listed as doubtful.
Utah opened as high as a 17.5-point favorite, but that number has been bet down to 16.5.
Sharp bettors, along with the public, are piling in to back the Jazz despite this being their second game in as many nights in addition to their third game in four days. Perhaps they’re buoyed to fade a Thunder team that has picked up only one win in their last ten ballgames.
