SALT LAKE CITY — Keyonte George scored 31 points and Lauri Markkanen added 28 to help the Utah Jazz snap a four-game skid with a 128-119 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Friday night. Brice Sensabaugh had 20 points for the Jazz, who finished 1-3 in NBA Cup group play.

The Jazz continue to look okay in spurts, but struggle to hold leads. After jumping out to a decent lead by the end of the 1st quarter, Utah did let Sactown slowly come back, and it would’ve looked a lot worse if Sacramento had been able to find a consistent offense.
