After Action Report

In Boston, the Jazz pulled away from the Celtics 129-116. Jazz's offense had its way with the Celtics. The Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss; Jazz's old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Celtics utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
