The Golden State Warriors have snapped their three-game losing streak, overcoming a slow start to earn a comfortable 134-117 win over the Utah Jazz at Chase Center on Monday night.
After trailing by nine at the end of the opening period, the Warriors were able to find a much-needed offensive groove which was signified by a season-high in scoring for veteran Buddy Hield who, at least momentarily, quieted some of the growing noise surrounding his place as a trade candidate.

Having gone scoreless in Friday's last start loss to the Portland Trail Blazers, Hield turned his stumbling form around with 20 points, five rebounds and four assists in nearly 23 minutes off the bench in arguably his best performance of the season.
