The Utah Jazz went into the All-Star break with the league’s longest winning streak. They came out of it with a little too much rust.
The Jazz kicked off the NBA’s second act with a 113-104 loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Friday night at Vivint Smart Home Arena.
“We got what we earned tonight,” Jazz head coach Quin Snyder said. “Give San Antonio credit. They came out and played with force. They were not just the more aggressive team but the more aggressive team by a long way.”
The Jazz were a step slow from the tip, but things really got away from them late in the second quarter.
