After Action Report
In Houston, the Jazz outlasted the Rockets 125-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. The Jazz couldn't shake the cold spell; the Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Jazz · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
