SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – Jazz forward Bojan Bogdanovic drove through traffic for a pretty looking layup during the opening minutes of Utah’s game against the San Antonio Spurs.

The Jazz hosted the Spurs at Vivint Arena on Wednesday, May 5.

With 7:49 remaining in the first quarter, Bogdanovic pulled out a crossover, dribble down the paint, and rose up through traffic for a left-handed layup.

After connecting on the foul shot, Bogdanovic’s three-point play gave the Jazz an 11-10 lead.

At the end of the first quarter, the Jazz owned a 38-26 advantage.
