The Utah Jazz edged the New Orleans Pelicans 120-119 in Salt Lake City, as a late go-ahead pair of free throws by a rookie sealed the win after New Orleans had led for much of the fourth quarter. The game featured a second-half swing, including a big run by the Pelicans to wipe a deficit before Utah overall steadied late. Jaren Jackson Jr. anchored Utah with a 24-point, 10-rebound night, while Zion Williamson led New Orleans with 23 points as both teams fought to control momentum. The outcome snapped an eight-game skid to the Pelicans for Utah, and the schedule now shifts to New Orleans visiting Denver and Utah hosting Los Angeles, with notable roster movement on the horizon.
