The Jazz, who won 21 of 23 games in between losses to the Hawks, made their final field goal on Rudy Gobert’s basket with 2:33 to play and missed their last five shots. The French big man finished the game with 15 points and 16 rebounds, while Spaniard Ricky Rubio scored 23 points.
The Bosnian Beast Jusuf Nurkic finished with 21 points and 11 rebounds for Portland, but the Rockets got one more road win with the final score being 115-111.
