MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The Utah Jazz’s mantra in the game against the Memphis Grizzlies was clear: shoot the ball from deep and do it a lot.

Shooting the 3-pointer more and more has become a common strategy for the some of the NBA’s best teams. However, against the Grizzlies, it didn’t pay off with a win as Memphis rolled to its third victory of the season over the Jazz in a 114-104 decision.

The squad set a Jazz team record for 3-pointers attempted in any half by chucking up 27 tries in the first half against the Grizzlies. They managed to convert on 11 attempts, good for 41 percent in the half.
