Weve arrived at another NBA Thursday, and we have a couple of great primetime games on tap for the night. Heres what jumps out to me on DraftKings Sportsbook.

All odds provided by DraftKings Sportsbook and all odds subject to change.

The Jazz have carried over all their success from the 2020-21 season into this season, with top-four performances in offensive and defensive efficiency, and come into this one on a real high with six wins in seven tries. While theyre on the road here, a spot where theyve historically struggled, I still think Utah should assert its dominance over Atlanta.

The Hawks were a solid defensive group during the playoffs last year, but havent replicated that same level this season. The Jazz should assert their dominance on the offensive end and suffocate a tired Hawks team, which comes in on the second night of a back-to-back, on defense.

Utah is 10-5 against the spread with a rest advantage dating back to the beginning of the 2020 season, and the Hawks are a middling 9-8 ATS in those spots. Theyll be up against it here.

I grabbed the Pistons at +6 but still like them in a get-right spot at +5.

Philadelphia has been relying on Furkan Korkmaz and Tyrese Maxey to carry the load offensively with Tobias Harris and Danny Green out, which isnt going to be sustainable. Additionally, Harris and Green are two important pieces of this defense, and I believe, against a depleted side and one which hasnt been quite as sharp without Ben Simmons, that Cade Cunningham can finally get going.

Detroit has length, talent and youth, and while they wont win many games this year, they should have some moments of promise. This game at home against a wounded Sixers team is one of those times.

The Celtics are weak down low, and thats where I think theyll get taken to school by the Miami Heat, which have been one of the most physical teams in the NBA. Bam Adebayo will lead the charge against the team with the third-worst rebounding rate in the NBA.

Adebayo should eat against Boston, who has gotten decent play out of Al Horford but has feared running him out for long stretches to preserve his health. Behind him theyve been using Robert Williams, who has also been disappointing rebounding the ball.

I think the Heats big man should push for 12 or more rebounds which would make this well within reach. I hesitate to take his rebound prop, for I see this as a safer bet, given hes landed right on 10 rebounds a couple of times.
