In order to have a chance against the Milwaukee Bucks and their collapsing paint defense on Monday, the Jazz knew they’d have to have a good night from 3-point range. They’d need everyone to take and make the open looks their offense generated, and they were most worried about O’Neale, who put up only one shot in 35 minutes in Utah’s previous game.
So Quin Snyder drew up a play for Royce O’Neale to be screened for in the corner, with some misdirection that Mike Conley played out perfectly. At the right moment, Conley swung the ball to O’Neale, who had an open corner look, and the three was money.
