MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – The Utah Jazz played unselfish basketball and passed the ball around until they found a wide-open Bojan Bogdanovic, who nailed a wide open three-point jump shot.
Bogdanovic’s shot from behind the arc came during the third quarter of the game between Utah and Minnesota on Wednesday, December 11.
Four Jazz starters touched the basketball before Bogdanovic’s bucket.
First Bogdanovic bulleted the ball to Donovan Mitchell. Then Mitchell tossed it to Royce O’Neale who passed the rock to Joe Ingles. Ingles bounced it over to Bogdanovic who drilled the shot from downtown to give the Jazz a 65-59 led with 11:04 left in the third quarter.
