After Action Report

In Utah, the Jazz downed the Lakers 118-104. The Jazz got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Shots just aren't falling for the Jazz lately; Jazz's old heads steadied the ship in the swings.

What tipped it

  • 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.
  • Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
