By all accounts, the Utah Jazz are hefty underdogs in their first-round playoff matchup with the Sacramento Kings.

According to the latest Las Vegas line, the Kings are 9 1/2-point favorites to win Game 1 Saturday at Arco Arena, and that's the widest spread of any of the eight NBA first-round matchups.
     
The Jazz are also the biggest underdogs to win the whole series. Even the No. 8 seed Phoenix Suns are considered a better bet in their series against the San Antonio Spurs.
