Donovan Mitchell led the Jazz with 24 points. Mike Conley chipped in 13 points but missed eight of his 11 attempts from the floor and four of his five 3-pointers. It was the second consecutive game Conley struggled offensively. He shot just 1 of 16 in the Jazz's victory over the Oklahoma City on Wednesday.

Utah forward Joe Ingles also had a tough outing, scoring just two points and taking just two shots. Reserve point guard Emmanuel Mudiay finished with 12 points, while center Rudy Gobert had eight points and nine rebounds for the Jazz.

With the game tied at 43-43 two minutes into the third quarter, the Lakers rode a 31-12 surge for a 74-55 lead heading into the fourth quarter. James had 12 points in the third as Los Angeles outscored Utah 31-18 in the quarter.

The Jazz got no closer than nine the rest of the way.

The Jazz rallied from a 12-point deficit in the second quarter before the Lakers took a 43-37 lead at the break. Both teams endured rough stretches offensively in the first half, with the Jazz managing 36.8-percent shooting compared to 34.8 percent for the Lakers. Utah committed 13 first-half turnovers compared to 10 for Los Angeles.

Overall, the Lakers shot 39.5 percent to 41.4 percent for the Jazz. Los Angeles finished with 14 turnovers to 22 for Utah.

The Lakers played without point guard Rajon Rondo (sore calf) and forward Kyle Kuzma (stress reaction, left foot) for the second game in a row.
