Jazz (12-11), Pelicans (11-11)
SALT LAKE CITY – For a second straight game, but for a very different reason, New Orleans lost four-time All-Star forward Anthony Davis during the middle of a contest against a Western Conference foe. Two nights after Davis was ejected for the first time in his six-year NBA career, on Friday he departed early in the fourth quarter due to a left groin injury. He was initially listed as doubtful to return to the game, and never made it back on the floor of what had been a four-point game when he exited.
