Regular Season Round 35: Utah Jazz - Toronto R. 104-123
Date: December 3, 2014
Guard Kyle Lowry led the Toronto Raptors to their second win in as many nights, scoring a career-high 39 points in a 123-104 victory over the Utah Jazz on Wednesday at EnergySolutions Arena. Toronto (15-4) completely dominated the first half and withheld the Jazz's brief second-half surge, looking nothing like a team that was playing its second game in 24 hours and for the third time in four nights far from home. The Raptors, who beat the Sacramento Kings 117-109 Tuesday, won for the eighth time in 10 games. DeMar DeRozan led the Raptors past the Jazz in Toronto, 111-93, last month with 27 points. The Eastern Conference-leading club didn't skip a beat without the injured swingman on Wednesday. Lowry (15 first-half points) and Greivis Vasquez (14 of his 17 points) help established control before halftime as the Raptors shot 64 percent took a 69-53 lead to the locker room. The Jazz got strong offensive contributions from their frontcourt, as both center Derrick Favors and power forward Enes Kanter finished with 19 points. However, Utah (5-14) fell for the seventh straight time, its longest losing streak since opening the 2013-14 season with eight consecutive losses. The Jazz, who had the same starters for the first 17 games, were forced into using their second different starting group in consecutive games because of guard Alec Burks' shoulder injury. Rookie Rodney Hood replaced Burks in the first unit, which was the fourth-youngest starting group in Jazz franchise history with an average age of 22 years, 351 days. All five Jazz starters scored in double figures, including Hood, who posted a career-best 10 points. Utah, however, didn't shoot nearly as well as Toronto thanks in part to rough shooting nights by small forward Gordon Hayward (5-for-15, 16 points) and point guard Trey Burke (6-for-15, 15 points). Rookie forward Joe Ingles scored a career-high 12 points off the bench for Utah, which continues its four-game homestead Friday against the Orlando Magic. The Raptors return home for a Friday night showdown with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Courtesy of: kcci.com
