Key Moment

Saturday night got ugly. And it got ugly quick.

Boston and Utah were neck-and-neck through the entire first half, but after Boston scored the first bucket of the second half to make it a three-point game, the Jazz pulled away for good.

Utah responded to that basket by rattling off a 10-2 run to pull ahead by 11 with 7:46 remaining in the third period. The C’s never sliced that lead to fewer than nine points the rest of the game.

Al Horford was the only member of the Celtics who scored during the spurt, which spanned three minutes and 32 seconds.
