Sharpe Play, Rebounding Help Trail Blazers Mute Jazz

The Portland Trail Blazers defeated the Utah Jazz 127-115 to snap a long six game losing streak that saw them plummet down the Western Conference standings.

The Blazers were led by a balanced scoring attack that saw four players end with 20 or more points. Damian Lillard had 30, Shaedon Sharpe 24, Trendon Watford had 21, and Jusuf Nurkic finished with 20.

The Utah Jazz were a one man show for much of the game, led by Lauri Markkanen who had 40 points tonight.
