Rockets – Jazz 127-132: Donovan Mitchell’s 37ara sustained Utah

The Utah Jazz achieved three straight wins in the NBA, but with more difficulty than they might have anticipated. Quinn Snyder’s players fought hard against the Houston Rockets until they finally achieved dominance in overtime (132-127) thanks to the great performance of Donovan Mitchell.

The deciding factor was Rudy Gomber’s contribution of 27 points and 17 rebounds, with the winners having three other players with double-digit points.

On the other hand, neither Jalen Green (27 points with 11/16 shots) nor Christian Wood (24 points with 8/13 shots and 10 rebounds) could have prevented the fatality, although Houston showed character and almost missed damage in Utah, in overtime .
