The night started off well for the Utah Jazz in Denver against the Nuggets and they kept the game as close as they could, but their offense went cold in the second half, and the Nuggets would end up running away with the game, 117-101.
Lauri Markkanen came out scorching hot, giving the Jazz a 9-3 lead, but the Jazz would struggle to have consistently good offense for the rest of the game. The other player who wasn’t hit with a cold spell was Mike Conley, who continues to play great for the Jazz. Conley went 4/7 from the field, 4/5 from three with 5 assists in just 23 minutes.
