Utah Jazz vs Oklahoma City Thunder first basket best bet: Lauri Markkanen (+500)
The Jazz can be expected to have the first possession in their road date with the Thunder on Friday. Utah big man Walker Kessler is one of the best in the business when it comes to jump balls. Kessler, a 7-footer, has won 63.2% of his jump balls this season (24 of 38). He will be going up against Jaylin Williams of Oklahoma City, who is among the worst in this particular department (7 won, 11 lost for 38.9%).
