The Utah Jazz took down the Los Angeles Clippers, 129-109, at Staples Center on Wednesday.

It was a comfortable win for the Jazz (25-21), who held a double-digit lead for the majority of regulation. Utah played a remarkably efficient game, shooting 52 percent from the field and reaching the free-throw line 37 times. Los Angeles (24-20), on the other hand, was unable to make a dent in Utah's impressive defense. Despite boasting one of the league's highest-scoring offenses, the Clippers shot only 45 percent from the field and tallied just 49 first-half points.


Utah saw an incredible 23-points, 22-rebound performance from star center Rudy Gobert. The reigning Defensive Player of the Year set a new season high on the boards and also blocked four shots. The Jazz also enjoyed a team-high 28 points from sophomore guard Donovan Mitchell.

The Clippers, meanwhile, were not themselves in Wednesday's loss. LA's combo of star forwards, Tobias Harris and Danilo Gallinari, shot just 9-of-28 from the field for 26 points. Big man Montrezl Harrell, fresh off consecutive 20-point performances, scored only 11 points off the bench on the night.

On Friday, Utah will host the Cleveland Cavaliers, while Los Angeles will square off with the Golden State Warriors.
