Cody Williams scored 26 points, Kyle Filipowski had 20 and Ace Bailey added 19 for Utah. The Jazz have lost six straight and 10 of their last 11.<\/p>\n
Bailey made an acrobatic layup that gave the Jazz their first lead since the opening moments at 105-103 with 5:40 to play, but then sat for the rest of the game.<\/p>\n
Mobley had three dunks in the second quarter alone. The first one started a 13-0 run that made it 44-30 for Cleveland. The other two slams helped fuel a 12-5 run to end the half with a 63-53 advantage after the Jazz had cut it to 3 points.<\/p>\n
Jarrett Allen and Max Strus recently returned from injuries as the Cavaliers, but neither played against the free-falling Jazz.<\/p>\n
Because of injuries (and a drive to improve draft chances), the Jazz played only eight, including two on a 10-day contracts and a two-way player. Rotation regulars Kevin Love and Svi Mykhailiuk were healthy scratches.<\/p>\n
