A dramatic ending and Dort career performance highlight three takeaways from the OKC Thunder loss to the Jazz in the entertaining home opener.
The OKC Thunder lost dramatically as the Utah Jazz beat OKC in the final seconds as Donovan Mitchell showed his poise down the stretch, hitting a floater with time expiring. It was undoubtedly one of those games that felt like a win instead of a loss just based on the effort displayed by OKC.
Luguentz Dort led the way scoring 26 points in 31 minutes, shooting 9 of 11 from the field, and hitting five 3-pointers along the way.
