SALT LAKE CITY - The Utah Jazz came out on top in what started out as a close game against the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night, winning 115-101.

Al Jefferson was the top scorer for Utah, but it was a huge night for the Jazz bench. Gordon Hayward had 17 points, and Derrick Favors and Alec Burks both hit double figures, with 14 and 13 points respectively.

The Jazz shot 50 percent from the field, which was enough to beat the Warriors, who made 47 percent of their field goal attempts.

Stephen Curry was the top scorer for the Warriors.

This win puts Utah at 31-24 for the season.

Rachel I think you might be new to covering basketball so I'll give you a few tips. 14 points is not a close game. Also 50% is a great shootage percentage. So I wouldn't say only shot 50%.

I hope we only shoot 50% more often.
Seriously though, Burks and Hayward rock together. Heres to hoping we see alot more of it! Go Jazz!
