Now that's more like it.
After two straight losses—one blowout and one nail-biter—the Jazz had it going from start to finish in a 98-86 victory over the Celtics Saturday night in Boston.
"Man, we played well," Donovan Mitchell said after the game. "We did our thing and responded against a tough team on a back-to-back. I'm really proud of the way we played."
The Jazz (8-8) are now 2-0 against the Celtics this season.
Mitchell led all players with 28 points, while Ricky Rubio finished with 20 points and three steals.
Rudy Gobert (12 points, nine rebounds, three assists, two steals, one block) and Derrick Favors (10 points, eight rebounds, one steal, one block) held their own down low.
