After Action Report
In Utah, the Jazz fended off the Suns 101-95. The Jazz won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
