SALT LAKE CITY- Utah Jazz forward Rudy Gay nailed a huge transition three in a tight game down the stretch against the Washington Wizards.
The Jazz hosted the Wizards at Vivint Arena on Saturday, December 18.
Jordan Clarkson knocked down a pass intended for Montrezl Harrell, then saved it from going out of bounds, starting a fast break opportunity. On the other end, Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell found Gay in the corner where he knocked down the shot to bring the Jazz within one, 89-88.
