The Utah Jazz (33 - 35) defeated the Phoenix Suns (18 - 50) 103 - 69 on Thursday. A thoroughly dominating performance by Utah was perhaps to be expected, considering that the Jazz came into the contest surrendering the second - lowest amount of points per game (97), while the Suns checked in with the second - highest turnover rate (16) on a nightly basis. Both figures proved to be prophetic Thursday, as the Jazz held Phoenix to a season - low scoring total, and also set a season - best total in points surrendered. The Jazz elicted 21 turnovers from the Suns as well, and held them to 34 percent and 25 percent success rates from the field and three - point range, respectively. Utah's domination was even more evident in the second half, when they held the helpless visitors to 31 total points. The Suns were led by Brandon Knight's 17 points, which he suppplemented with eight rebounds, two assists and a block. Alex Len was the only other starter to manage double - digit points, amassing 10 points, 12 rebounds and two assists. Jon Leuer paced the bench with 14 points, eight rebounds and two steals, as the third and final Phoenix player to score in double digits. The Suns remain in fourth place in the Western Conference's Pacific Division. They head to Los Angeles to face the Lakers on Friday. With such a comfortable second - half lead, it was a reserve, Trey Lyles, who paced the Jazz in scoring with 17 points over 19 minutes. He added two rebounds, one assist and two steals. Shelvin Mack and Joe Ingles co - led the starters with a pair of 15 - point efforts. Mack also supplied 10 assists and eight rebounds, while Ingles, getting the start in Gordon Hayward's (foot) stead, registered four rebounds, two assists and a career - high six steals. Derrick Favors was next with 12 points, five rebounds and two steals.
