After Action Report

In Utah, the Jazz squeaked past the Clippers 119-118. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Jazz carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Jazz's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Clippers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
