It was a packed night in Vivint Smart Home Arena on Monday evening, as thousands of fans crowded in to get a much needed Utah Jazz basketball fix. I know I needed it.
They didn’t disappoint. Led by a balanced scoring attack, the Utah Jazz would gain an impressive 92-76 victory over the San Antonio Spurs.
The Jazz would lead by as many as 30 in the game and never trailed. They were led by Georges Niang, who poured in 17 points on 7-of-12 shooting, including 2-of-4 from three. Niang could find himself with more playing time with the Jazz this season after spending almost the entire 2017-18 campaign with Utah’s G-League affiliate, the Salt Lake City Stars.
