The Utah Jazz were without their top two players yesterday, and it looked like it in the second half. The Jazz got outscored by 27 points in the second half against the Raptors and lost the game. Tonight, they get a chance at redemption against the Indiana Pacers.

Indiana hasn't had the season it thought it would have and is likely going to be in the lottery because of it. Their season hasn't been fun, but a win to break a losing streak is always nice. Can they get it done?

Here are the odds for the matchup via WynnBET.

Jazz vs. Pacers Prediction and Pick

Donovan Mitchell missed last night's game against the Raptors and without Rudy Gobert, his presence was missed. Utah was able to get a lead on the Raptors, but ultimately gave it up and lost big. If the Jazz's supporting cast was good enough to get up big on the Raptors, they can do the same to the Pacers.

Indiana has been in the bottom third of the league over the last five games in defensive rating and net rating. They aren't stout by any means and Utah has the offensive weapons to attack it.

The Pacers have lost six straight and are 2-8 in their last 10 games. This is a team that continues to fall apart as the season wears on. The Jazz will have no problem tonight -- even on the road.

Pick: Jazz -2.5 (-110)
