Tired Jazz falter down the stretch against Hawks
The Utah Jazz failed to go 2-0 on an Eastern Conference back-to-back road trip against two lottery-bound teams, falling to the Atlanta Hawks 117-114 Thursday evening.
The first half, and especially the second quarter, didn’t go well for Utah. Offensively, nothing went particularly awry. The Jazz shot a respectable 44.2 percent from the field and an even more respectable 41.2 percent from beyond the arc. It was just that the Hawks shot 54.5 percent from deep and 50 percent overall.
