Line of the Night

Gordon Hayward (Utah Jazz): 27 PTS (11-18 FG), 4 REB, 4 AST, 3 STL

Hayward led the Jazz with 27 points in Friday's loss to OKC. The Jazz have played well over their last 12 games, going 7-5 in that span, highlighted by wins over Memphis and Chicago, as it tries to rise from the cellar in the Western Conference. David West scored 7 of his 11 points in the final six minutes against a Boston team without Jeff Green, who had been traded to the Grizzlies earlier in the day. Roy Hibbert contributed a double-double in five blocks as the Pacers pull within a game of the 8th spot in the East.
