After Action Report

In Utah, the Jazz outlasted the Mavericks 111-94. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Jazz's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Jazz bent the defense out of shape from deep. 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. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
