Today's best bet: DENVER NUGGETS (-4) over Utah Jazz

The Nuggets are hot, winning their last four games and nine of 10 overall. Currently the second seed in the West, Denver also has won a season-high six straight and 13 of 15 at home, where it drilled Utah 117-97 earlier this year. The Jazz have lost five of their last six on the road and let Portland shoot better than 61 percent from the field Tuesday in a 125-104 drubbing in Oregon.
