The Utah Jazz seemed to wave the white flag before tip sitting many of their key players, and the Milwaukee Bucks responded in kind with a thoroughly dominating offensive performance for this 144-116 win.
Against the Utah Jazz’s skeleton crew, the Bucks had little issue pouring it on the defense en route to a 40-25 advantage after one. The Jazz made a run of it in the second quarter before a late scoring push by Milwaukee kept them at arm’s length, down 72-58 at half. In the third, the Jazz fell flat, and Milwaukee just battered through the Utah defense time and again to blow the game open with a 115-85 lead through three.
