After Action Report
In Utah, the Jazz outlasted the Wizards 88-79. Jazz controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Jazz couldn't shake the cold spell; Jazz's outside barrage was a constant threat. Style points be damned.
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.
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Wizards · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
