After Action Report

In Utah, the Jazz snuck past the 76ers 128-125 in overtime. The breakneck pace played right into Jazz's hands. Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the 76ers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • 76ers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
