NBA First Basket Scorer Prop Bet Odds, Picks & Predictions: Jazz vs. Kings

The Utah Jazz is the more consistent team at winning the first possession. They have the more consistent scorers on their team too. That means they have the best opportunity tonight to score first. 

The best player to score first in this matchup is Lauri Markkanen. Both these teams spread out their scoring more than most teams in the NBA, but Markkanen is the best chance tonight. Lower the number of units placed on Markkanen because of that but there is a betting upside to Markkanen.
