Utah Jazz (15-46, 15th in the Western Conference) vs. Washington Wizards (11-49, 15th in the Eastern Conference) Washington; Wednesday, 7 p.m. EST BOTTOM LINE: Utah will try to break its nine-game road losing streak when the Jazz take on Washington.
Utah fought valiantly while shorthanded on Sunday night in a seven-point loss to the New Orleans Pelicans, and that came on the heels of a huge win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. This team has covered the spread in six of its last eight and has done so in its previous two games played on the second night of a back-to-back.
Collin Sexton (left ankle sprain) has resumed on court activities and is nearing a return. He will be re-evaluated early next week.
