After Action Report
In a track meet, the Jazz squeaked past the Clippers 112-109. The Clippers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Jazz. The Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss; Jazz's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
