These are two teams going in opposite directions and the Jazz showed what makes them so tough. Utah forced Miami to shoot 30 percent from three - point range and held them to just 80 shot attempts. Despite losing Derrick Favors in this game to renewed knee soreness, Utah was able to piece things together using a small lineup. Gordon Hayward continued his great form, as his 25 points and nine boards marked the fifth - straight game with at least 20 points and five rebounds. Miami's bench was the only thing keeping them around in this game, as they outscored the Utah bench 49 - 32. With Goran Dragic out of the lineup due to an ankle injury, the Heat got very little guard production. In fact, Tyler Johnson, Josh Richardson and Dion Waiters combined to shoot 9 - of - 27 in this defeat. Richardson did play a season - high in minutes though, as he seems to be fully recovered from his knee injury.
