After Action Report
The Jazz snuck past the Rockets 113-109. Jazz torched the Rockets on the offensive end. The Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Jazz; the Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
