The Dallas Mavericks fell heartbreakingly to the Utah Jazz tonight, losing 114-116. To make things worse, the team lost All-Star big man Anthony Davis late in the fourth, whose defensive presence could’ve prevented the Jazz from scoring several key buckets.

Dallas Mavericks star Anthony Davis left the Utah Jazz matchup early with a setback. Jason Kidd addressed it after the loss.

The Jazz’s defense has had its fair share of problems over the last couple of years even when defensive anchor Walker Kessler was healthy and on the court, but the walloping at the hands of the Trail Blazers meant that the team needed to look in the mirror.

Naji Marshall committed a turnover with 56.9 seconds left by passing an inbound pass toward the direction of Cooper Flagg, but the pass was picked off by Brice Sensabaugh, leading to a layup that gave the Jazz a comfortable lead to cruise to a victory.

Thanks to the Jazz's Derrick Favors trade with OKC from back in the summer of 2021, their 2026 first-round pick is top-eight protected, in possession of the Thunder––meaning that selection, if within slots one through eight, stays on with the Jazz, but anywhere outside of it, falls into the lap of the 2025 champs.

The Utah Jazz’s young core came away believing in themselves after an overtime loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Utah Jazz take on the Charlotte Hornets in out-of-conference play. Saturday's game is the second meeting of the season between the two teams.

The Utah Jazz, despite a resilient effort in the final moments to try and upset the reigning champion OKC Thunder on the road, came up just short in a 125-129 overtime loss for their fifth-straight game dropped on the road, and now head back home with a 12-24 record on the year––good for the 13th-ranked team in the West.
