After Action Report

The Jazz squeaked past the Timberwolves 93-91. The Jazz won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss; 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. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
