On the back end of a back to back and the third game in four nights, the Utah Jazz faltered late and lost to the Houston Rockets, 114-108.
With a lot of hands on knees at the free throw line, it was obvious the Jazz were exhausted and the numbers showed it. Lauri Markkanen struggled in this one going just 7/19 from the field and 0/6 from three. It’s not surprising, Markkanen has been incredible this season and it would be a big ask for him to have another huge outing as the Jazz’s primary scorer on the wing.
