The Portland Trail Blazers lost their sixth consecutive game on Wednesday night, getting soundly defeated 123-85 by the surging Utah Jazz in Salt Lake City. The contest marked the fifth time over the streak that the Blazers scored under 100 points, a remarkable feat in the modern NBA. Portland was held to just 49 points entering the fourth quarter of the game, and trailed by as many 51 late in the third quarter. Some late window dressing wasn’t nearly enough to cover up a disastrous performance on both ends of the floor.
Bojan Bogdanovic led the Jazz with 27 points on 9-14 shooting, including 6-9 from beyond the arc.
