LOS ANGELES, Calif., March 23 – The four game losing streaks appears to have come to an end for the Utah Jazz. On Tuesday the team ended their bad luck with a home win. Tonight the Utah Jazz has continued on with defeating the Los Angeles Clippers at the Staples Center 121-115 OT. In over time Mehmet Okur made a three pointer as the court was wide open. Carlos Boozer made the assist to Okur. Soon after the turn-over Derek Fisher stole the ball to end the game with another three point shot.

The Jazz had their last win against the New Orleans Hornets on March 4, 2007. Utah Jazz Hear Coach Jerry Sloan said, “We’ve had some trouble on the road, so it feels good to get a road victory.” Boozer commented on tonight’s game of how much work had to go into making tonight a win for the Jazz.

The Utah Jazz will host the Memphis Grizzlies at the Energy Solutions Arena in Salt Lake City on March 24, 2007.
