Utah Jazz vs Sacramento Kings Recap

The Utah Jazz edged out the Sacramento Kings in overtime on February 4, 2013, 98-91. Randy Foye led the Jazz with 20 points, and the Jazz had 6 players in double figures in the win. The likely reason that the Kings couldn't pull this one off was DeMarcus Cousins, who was ejected at halftime after calling the referee an "effing female". This was his 2nd ejection in three games, and it didn't prove very helpful for Sacramento. The story bubbling in Utah was Jimmer Fredette, who was returning to Utah, where he played four years of college. However, Jimmer went 0-5 in this game, and did not make much of a difference for Sacramento. The worst part of the game for the Jazz, though, was the end of regulation. With the game tied, Randy Foye dribbled out the clock, then drove it inside, only to kick it out to (who else) Al Jefferson for a three-pointer! But the most embarrassing part was that the three pointer didn't even make it to the rim! However, the Jazz did make up for it in overtime. Here is a video and box score:

The Jazz are matched up against the Milwaukee Bucks in Utah for their next game. The Bucks aren't doing that bad, so it might be tough, but I am sure that the Jazz can pull off a win. Here are some pictures, and thanks for reading!
