Utah Jazz 125, Sacramento Kings 126 (Final)

What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Eric Walden @tribjazz
While there were plenty of crucial moments gone wrong late in the Utah Jazz’s 126-125 loss to the Kings on Friday, Mike Conley’s foul trouble — and having to miss six pivotal minutes down the stretch — was irksome to him and the rest of the team. sltrib.com/sports/jazz/20…3:04 AM

The Triple Team! 3 thoughts on
1. Lauri Markkanen’s versatile game (with Synergy stats)
2. Walker Kessler’s plus-minus, and when he should start
3. Sacramento Kings fans deserve happiness. They deserve for this playoff drought to end.

Kevin Huerter on his game-winning 3: “That building went off. Great feeling, obviously, just for us to keep that possession alive. I think we had two offensive rebounds in there. Fox tried to get to the bucket. Just keeping that ball alive, that’s a will to win.” – 12:52 AM

And that’s it: the Kings defeat the Jazz 126-125 in a thriller. Utah falls to 19-19 after losing its third straight Markkanen leads everyone with 36 but needed one more make. Utah gets swept on this road trip. Back home tomorrow night for the Miami Heat – 12:31 AM
James Ham @James_HamNBA
The Utah Jazz are one of the surprise teams of the season and they gave the Kings fits Friday night at Golden 1 Center. Lauri Markkanen was excellent, but Domantas Sabonis was better as the Kings pulled out the 126-125 win. Here are 6 quick thoughts. – 12:30 AM

Two incredible games to save what was looking like a horrible Kings homestand.
The Beam Team has their swagger back. – 12:30 AM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
That’s four straight wins without Steph Curry and Andrew Wiggins to open this eight-game homestand from the Warriors. Beat the Grizzlies, Hornets, Jazz and now Blazers. Jordan Poole scored 41. Klay Thompson 31. Draymond/DiVincenzo/Kuminga important. Wiggins likely back Monday. – 12:30 AM

FINAL: Kings 126, Jazz 125. A great rally down the stretch, then another period where they couldn’t get a stop. Markkanen 36p on 16-24 FGs (but 1-7 on 3s). JC 25p/9a. Conley 17p/8a. Utah just 8-32 from deep. Kings shot 55.6% overall. Sabonis 28p/11r/8a. Heurter 30p. Fox 24/10a. – 12:29 AM

That last basket by De’Aaron Fox won’t count. Kings lead the Jazz 91-87 going into the fourth quarter. – 11:53 PM
Eric Walden @tribjazz
End 3Q: Kings 91, Jazz 87. Fox’s shot at the horn is ruled too late. Meanwhile, the Jazz finally get a couple 3s to drop — they’re all the way up to 5 for 22. – 11:53 PM
Tony Jones @Tjonesonthenba
I don’t think Fox got that off in time. Billy Kennedy just officially waved it off. Jazz trail the Kings 91-87 at the end of three – 11:52 PM

Utah has done a great job staying close enough to steal this one. Kings have to stay focused and finish this game. – 11:52 PM

Kings extend their lead over the Jazz to their largest of the evening, up 77-67 with 6:59 in the 3rd. Domantas Sabonis is absolutely fired up. He’s all over his teammates and taking a beating down low. Domas up to 18 points, 9 boards and 7 assists. – 11:35 PM

Jazz down 10, Kings shooting 9-21 from three while Jazz are just 3-18. Jazz’s best shooters, Markkanen and Beasley, are 0-9. So it goes. – 11:34 PM

Sacramento finally gets the separation on the scoreboard they had been threatening to open for most of the game. Quick 5-0 run gives them a 77-67 lead. Will Hardy is forced to call a timeout – 11:34 PM

Walker Kessler had a strong half, and still some obvious places he can improve.
First, closing that space when guards pull up for the 6-8 foot push shot.
He’s too unwilling to leave the rim and it hurts his interior defense. Needs to take one more step out. – 11:12 PM

First half over: the Jazz trail the kings 60-57….I thought the Jazz were relatively good so far. The kings are a really good team at home and are very difficult to guard. The Jazz have done what’s needed to stay in the game so far – 11:10 PM
Eric Walden @tribjazz
HALFTIME: Kings 60, Jazz 57. Both teams shooting well overall, though Utah is just 3-15 from deep. Jazz hurt a bit by 9 TOs, but their 17 FTAs have helped. – 11:10 PM
