Jazz Continue Home Dominance of Cavs

For whatever reason, the Utah Jazz have had the Cavaliers’ number in the last three seasons, especially when playing in Salt Lake City.

With Tuesday night’s 100-92 win, the Jazz are now 3-0 at home against LeBron James since he returned to Cleveland in 2014.

Utah (24-16) received 28 points on 10-of-12 shooting from Gordon Hayward.

Five other players reached double figures scoring for the Jazz, who are 14-7 at home this season.

LeBron scored 29 points and Kyrie Irving added 20, but Cleveland was held to only 36.5 percent shooting on the night and shot 9-for-31 from long range.

Kyle Korver made his Cavaliers debut, scoring two points on 1-of-5 shooting in 18 minutes.

Cleveland falls to 28-9 on the season and travels to Portland (16-23) for the second end of a back-to-back on Wednesday night.

Tip-off is set for 10:30 pm ET.
