The Portland Trail Blazers had Sunday off but their hold on the sixth seed in the Western Conference got a little stronger.
The idle Blazers (38-36) remain in sixth with a game and a half cushion over Utah heading into Monday's home game against the Sacramento Kings.
The Dallas Mavericks (35-38) lost to the Sacramento Kings and the Houston Rockets (36-38) lost to the Pacers in Indiana on Sunday.
The Mavericks are now out of the playoff picture, trailing the Rockets by a half-game for the eighth and final playoff spot. The Utah Jazz (36-37) moved into seventh thanks to losses by the Mavericks and Rockets.
