After Action Report

In Utah, the Jazz handled the Lakers 113-98. Jazz's scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Jazz; shots just aren't falling for the Jazz lately. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Jazz · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
