After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Jazz squeaked past the Lakers 98-97. Jazz's scorers couldn't be contained. Jazz's stars took over and bent the game to their will; fresh off a statement win, the Jazz stayed locked in. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. The Jazz rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
