The Utah Jazz ( 8 - 7 ) held off the New Orleans Pelicans ( 4 - 13 ) 101 - 87 on Saturday . Utah had a 16 - point lead going into the fourth quarter and it 's nearly impossible to beat this stingy defense with that sort of deficit . The rebounding was the big difference in the game , as the Jazz snatched 49 boards compared to 35 for the Pelicans . These are teams going in opposite directions and the Jazz proved tonight that good defense will always prevail . New Orleans came into this game as the worst defense in the NBA and the 101 points allowed is a significant improvement on those ugly numbers . It 's still not good enough to win and it does n't look that great when you notice that Utah currently has one of the three - worst offenses in the league . New Orleans got a fantastic game out of Anthony Davis though , as he tallied 36 points , 11 rebounds , three blocks and two steals in the loss . The more amazing part about that game is that it 's one night after being carried off the floor with a knee injury . What hurt the Pelicans on this night was the rest of the starters , as the four others combined for just 14 points , six rebounds , and five assists . That 's almost a nearly identical line to what Ish Smith provided off the bench on Saturday as well , and the Pelicans simply need more from their other starters . New Orleans will have to take on another potent defense when they play the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday . The Jazz played this game without Derrick Favors and they did n't miss a beat . Favors missed the game for an unknown personal reason , but Trevor Booker filled - in spectacularly . Booker amassed 13 points , 15 rebounds , three assists , three blocks and two steals in the win . Alec Burks was also fantastic off the bench , as he led the team with 21 points and provided an additional five rebounds and four assists . This is a dominant defense , so when players like Booker and Burks can produce like this , they 'll be tough to beat . Utah will play the undefeated Golden State Warriors on Monday in their next scheduled game and it should be a great test for this defense against the best offense in the NBA .
