The Jazz also won the second quarter by a 27-18 score and extended that dominance in the second half as well, winning the final two quarters by 38-23 and 30-28, respectively. Utah didn't have problems to win this contest and the Jazz is clearly moving in the right direction following their recent results.

Donovan Mitchell paced the way for the Jazz with 27 points, four assists and three rebounds, while Bojan Bogdanovic chipped in with 20 points, two rebounds and three assists.

Mike Conley had 12 points, six rebounds and five assists, while Jordan Clarkson made his presence felt with 21 points off the bench.

The Cavaliers had a tough day offensively, as they shot just 38.9 percent from the field and 25.8 percent from three-point range.
