After Action Report
The Lakers survived the Jazz 118-116 in overtime. The Jazz had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Jazz couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Jazz locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
