The Utah Jazz will host the New Orleans Pelicans at the Vivint Arena for the back-end of a two-game set on Saturday. Their first meeting of the season last night ended with an unexpected Pelicans victory, thanks to a game-winning three-pointer by Devonte' Graham. The Jazz, meanwhile, played lackadaisical basketball all night, and had no energy at the defensive end.NBA@NBABrandon Ingram finishes with 21 PTS, 8 REB and 5 AST, and Devonte' Graham drains a game-winning triple with 1.2 seconds on the clock to lift the @PelicansNBA to the win!Nickeil Alexander-Walker: 15 PTSWilly Hernangomez: 13 PTS, 8 REB, 5 ASTJonas Valanciunas: 11 PTS, 10 REB10:10 AM · Nov 27, 202150284Brandon Ingram finishes with 21 PTS, 8 REB and 5 AST, and Devonte' Graham drains a game-winning triple with 1.2 seconds on the clock to lift the @PelicansNBA to the win!Nickeil Alexander-Walker: 15 PTSWilly Hernangomez: 13 PTS, 8 REB, 5 ASTJonas Valanciunas: 11 PTS, 10 REB https://t.co/WXF8XOWnVTThe last Utah Jazz possession was underwhelming, to say the least. Moreover, Donovan Mitchell's poor shot selection and decision-making was a major factor in their 98-97 loss on the night. With the game on the line, he bled the clock to the end of the shot clock before attempting a wild layup in traffic. He had four other players waiting on some pick or a kick-out pass that never came. To exacerbate matters, he finished with 16 points on 6-21 shooting from the field along with four turnovers. Bojan Bogdanovic was a game-high 23 points on 9-14 shooting on the night, though.Meanwhile, Brandon Ingram had a great game for the New Orleans Pelicans. He scored 21 points with eight rebounds and five assists, although he did so on average shooting splits. The Pelicans are dealing with a lot of injuries, and are ranked in the bottom five in both offensive and defensive rating. They will get another crack at defeating the Utah Jazz on Saturday, but will need to execute better because the Jazz will be motivated to avoid another loss.New Orleans Pelicans Injury ReportZion Williamson of the New Orleans Pelicans on the benchZion Williamson is still out for the New Orleans Pelicans due to a foot fracture.

Devonte Graham and Josh Hart will likely start in the backcourt, and Brandon Ingram should be at the small forward spot. Herb Jones could start as the power forward again until Williamson returns, while Jonas Valanciunas retains his usual center position. Additionally, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Willy Hernangomez and Tomas Satoransky will likely play the most minutes off the bench.Utah JazzWith Royce O'Neale off the injury report, Utah Jazz head coach Quin Snyder will likely not make any changes to his starting lineup.
