Although the Jazz started off their road trip on a high with a win against the Knicks, they have lost consecutive games since then.

Currently tied for fourth place with the Dallas Mavericks, the Jazz have slipped down the rankings in the West. Although Utah is the best offensive team in the league, the Celtics managed to restrict them to less than 100 points.

Donovan Mitchell notched up 37 points for the Jazz. However, Rudy Gobert, their next highest scorer, could contribute only 14 as the Jazz were completely outclassed on the road.

The Charlotte Hornets have been a wildly inconsistent team this season. The Knicks loss snapped their five-game winning streak.

The Knicks started off hot, scoring 40 points in the first quarter. They made 20 three-pointers in the game. Charlotte, meanwhile, shot 47.2% from the field and 28.3% from beyond the arc. Struggling to score consistently, the Hornets couldn't produce a response to New York's offense.

LaMelo Ball ended the night with 32 points. He was joined by Miles Bridges and Terry Rozier, who had 15 and 18 points, respectively. However, Charlotte struggled due to poor contributions from the bench.
