The hot streak continued for the Utah Jazz on Monday night.

The Jazz flirted with another 60-percent shooting night but managed to do just fine despite hitting that mark for the third game in a row, blowing out the Memphis Grizzlies 120-93 at EnergySolutions Arena.

Six Jazz players scored in double digits and three had 22-plus as Utah won its third in a row and improved to 10-7.

Ronnie Brewer scored a season-high with 25 points to lead the Jazz, who also got 24 points and 17 rebounds from Carlos Boozer and a 22-point night from Deron Williams.

Rookie Wesley Matthews also had a big night, finishing with career-highs in scoring with 17 points and in assists (five).

Utah finished shooting 58 percent en route to its most lopsided win of the season.

Memphis (6-12) was led by O.J. Mayo's 20 points, but the Grizzlies were without star Rudy Gay.
