Valanciunas killed Kessler during FIBA this past summer. Maybe the thinking was to avoid that matchup and start Yurtseven instead.

Sexton came in fired up on the 4th quarter with 10 points and 5 assists.

That pass by Keyonte to KO was incredible (please ignore that KO missed the layup).

That was a gimme, and KO had plenty of time to gather and flip it in. Not sure why he rushed.

Sexton - 16 points, 6 assists, 3 rebounds (10 points in the 4th)

Keyonte - 15 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists (4/9 from 3)

Olynyk - 13 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists (3/3 from 3)

Collins - 12 points and 9 rebounds

Kessler - 11 points, 11 rebounds, 2 blocks

Wow, I forgot how fun it is when they win! Good effort on both ends.

 

[Isaiah 1:13]

Brilliant move by Hardy sending Clarkson home “sick” and holding Markkanen out with hammy soreness (though he reportedly wanted to play). Those guys will come back with renewed focus now.

 

[SD Jazz]

Some game, Key is the man for the future.

Great 4th quarter comeback. Maybe Kessler being hurt all season has been kryptonite. I thought we would lose by 30 at half.

 

[Elizah Huge]

I loved the defensive intensity tonight.

 

[Isaiah 1:13]

That pass by Keyonte to KO was incredible (please ignore that KO missed the layup).

Best game from the kid, no?

 

[TheGoldStandard]

Good to see some ball movement, even if there were a few ill advised cross court passes leading to TOs. I'd rather have good movement with some TOs rather than the overdribbling crap that we have seen most of the season.

Clarkson has got to go, or at least come off the bench.

 

[JazzGal]

That was fun! So happy to see Walker back.

Now if only we can get fewer turnovers.
