Jazz make it 10 in a row
Utah went against the Spurs with a winning streak on the line. For a moment, it looked as if the Spurs were going to snap the Jazz's winning streak behind some great defense. However, Donovan Mitchell came through in the clutch for Utah. Mitchell had 13 points in the fourth quarter and hit the go-ahead baskets needed to lift Utah to its 10th straight win.
