After Action Report
The Jazz outlasted the Lakers 116-99. The Jazz got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Jazz's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; the Lakers couldn't shake the cold spell. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
