The New Orleans Pelicans took a 116-97 loss against Washington at home Friday night, a defeat that ended a 10-game winning streak. They'll host the Utah Jazz on Sunday, and I expect the visitors to come out ahead.

Utah is riding a five-game winning streak into Louisiana and put up an impressive performance in Friday's 95-78 triumph at Memphis. The Jazz are 5-2 ATS in their last seven games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 7-1 ATS after allowing 85 points or less this season.

The Pels are 17-13 SU (12-17-1 ATS) home at Smoothie King Center on the season while the Jazz are 8-0 ATS in their last eight road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Utah is 15-19 SU (17-17 ATS) on the road while the Pelicans are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 home games vs. a team with a losing road record.

My selection is an 8* play on Utah Jazz.
