Utah Jazz fall to Trail Blazers in regular season's home finale

The quest to clinch the No. 1 seed continues.

The Utah Jazz’s magic number remains at two games after falling to the Portland Trail Blazers 105-98 in the team’s home finale Wednesday night.

Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson scored 29 points off the bench. But on an off night for the Jazz, the team shot just 30 percent from behind the arc and turned the ball over 12 times leading to 16 Portland points.

“I thought we got good looks. They just didn’t go in. We’ve got to keep grinding,” Jazz head coach Quin Snyder. “We just have to keep at it and keep helping each other and keep playing for each other.
