With every win, the Utah Jazz know the target on their backs gets a little bigger.
“You really never get no nights off, but now knowing what our record is … teams are coming after us,” Jordan Clarkson said. “Every time we lace them up, we’re getting the best shot the other team can give.”
That’s especially true when you’re facing the reigning MVP and an Eastern Conference contender coming off a frustrating defeat. But even Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks couldn’t slow down the NBA’s hottest team Friday night.
The Greek Freak scored a game-high 29 points, but the Jazz countered with five players with at least 25 in a 129-115 Jazz victory.
