After Action Report
The Jazz handled the Cavaliers 153-143 in double overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Jazz; Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
