⚖️ Analysis Summary

Public heavily favors the Spurs, aligning with sharp money and line movement, making following the favorite optimal rather than fading. Math supports Spurs covering due to their elite net rating (+10.2) vs Jazz’s poor form (3-17 last 20). Game projects low-scoring with both teams’ slow pace and defensive focus, favoring the under.
