If the Utah Jazz are to make a legit postseason push over the final month and change of the 2017-18 NBA season, they’re going to have to fight for it. During Friday night’s bout with the Minnesota Timberwolves, that’s exactly what happened — quite literally.
In a game that featured multiple ejections, a bad flagrant foul and a shoving match in front of the Wolves’ bench, the Jazz escaped with a big 116-108 win over the pesky T-Wolves to keep pace in the playoff race.
The Jazz band was led in their sweet rhythm by Rudy Gobert, who scored a season-high 26 points.
