Evaluation that the result was different from what was expected. At this trade deadline, the two teams’ movements were completely different.

Utah let go of starting point guard Mike Conley and key big man Jared Vanderbilt to let go of the rebuilding route. On the other hand, Toronto is in a state of shouting for a playoff challenge and a presidential challenge by protecting all the key players after recruiting Jacob Puddle from San Antonio.

A clash between the two teams that are clearly different from the will. Rather, it was Utah who took the victory. He succeeded in escaping from 3 consecutive losses and harvested the 28th win (29th loss) of the season.

Colin Sexton, who replaced Conley as the starting point guard, recorded 22 points and 6 assists, while ace Lowry Makkanen recorded 23 points and 9 rebounds. In the 9-man rotation that was activated that day, 9 players showed team basketball in which they scored at least 6 points each.

Defeated Toronto ended their three-game winning streak. He suffered his 31st loss (26 wins) of the season. Pascal Siakam scored 35 points and 6 rebounds, Gary Trent Jr. scored 19 points and 5 rebounds, and Fred VanVleet scored 17 points and 4 assists in a losing effort.

Toronto had a generous lead of 112-100 with 4:50 left in the fourth quarter. But in the final 4 minutes and 50 seconds, it collapsed with a 22-4 run. While allowing Makanen’s pull-up jumper, Walker Kessler’s layup, and Kelly Olinic’s three-point shot in succession, Toronto’s shots all missed the goal.

Sexton’s free throw tied the score at 112-112, Kessler’s bottom shot, and Sexton’s free throw broke out again, but Toronto’s offense was quiet. It was 120-116 with 11 seconds left, and the game was decided that way.
