The Roundup— Jazz 112, Blazers 103
What a night!
Known for their lockdown defense (of which there was still plenty) the Utah Jazz got into a late-game shootout with the Portland Trail Blazers—one of the NBA's most dangerous offensive teams—and came away with a thrilling 112-103 overtime victory.
Ricky Rubio led the Jazz with 30 points (a new season high), while rookie Donovan Mitchell came off the bench to score a career-high 28 points in 35 minutes. Rudy Gobert double-doubled with 16 points and 10 rebounds (and three blocks) in the win.
The Jazz (5-3) remained undefeated at home and have now won three straight games.
