An impressive first quarter in which Sactown held the opposition to just 4-of-24 from the field helped the team end the frame with a 26-12 advantage.
An area of concentration was immediately answered in that period, as the Kings allowed the Jazz to shoot just 1-of-13 from long distance, just one night after a barrage of threes from the Pelicans.
Although Utah was able to outscore the purple and black in the second quarter, Sacramento kept pace and went into the break with a double-digit advantage.
The squad held their advantage for the majority of the second half, but a late Jazz run caught the Kings in a 101-101 tie in the latter stages of the fourth quarter.
