The Story in 60 Seconds

The Utah Jazz suffered their sixth consecutive defeat, falling 120-113 in overtime to the New Orleans Pelicans. Keyonte George led Utah's offensive efforts, but a potential game-winning shot was released a fraction of a second too late at the end of regulation. The Pelicans subsequently dominated the overtime period through the physical play of Zion Williamson and Saddiq Bey to seal the victory.

With the loss, head coach Will Hardy's team dropped to a 1-7 record on the season while remaining missing injured players Jusuf Nurkic and Jaren Jackson Jr. George finished as the primary offensive focal point alongside Ace Bailey's 15 points, while the Pelicans improved their record to 3-4 following an opening 16-2 fourth-quarter run that erased Utah's prior double-digit advantage.
