Paul Millsap (21 points) went to war Wednesday. DeMarre Carroll was a bulldog. Derrick Favors continued to be synonymous with double-double, and Jamaal Tinsley ran point while Devin Harris watched the battle. It was team ball at its best, exactly when Utah needed it most.

“This was one of the biggest wins of the year,” Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin said.

He added, “I’m so proud of this group, man, because they continue to lay it on the line every night they step out on the floor.”

The resurgent Jazz did it all with just 10 active athletes. Take away Harris, who drew his fifth personal foul nine seconds into the fourth quarter, and Blake Ahearn, a former Development League player who didn’t take the court against Houston, and it was actually eight versus nine.
