Lauri Markkanen scored 27 points and Brice Sensabaugh added 20 as the Utah Jazz beat the Indiana Pacers 131-122 in a matchup of two short-handed teams on Tuesday in Indianapolis.
The Jazz snapped a season-worst six-game losing streak by shooting 56.8% from the field and 44.8% (13 of 29) from 3-point range.
All seven players who took the floor for Utah scored in double figures, including Ace Bailey (19), Svi Mykhailiuk (18), and Isaiah Collier, who had 17 points and a career-high 22 assists. Kyle Filipowski added 16 points and a season-high 16 rebounds, and Cody Williams chipped in 14 points.
Utah led 112-108 with 6:19 left before Sensabaugh hit two 3-pointers during a 15-5 run to help the Jazz extend their lead to 127-113 with 2:39 remaining.
The Pacers had nine active players and lost their second straight game despite shooting 53.6% from the field.
Jarace Walker and Quenton Jackson led the Pacers with 24 points apiece. Johnny Furphy scored 14 points, Jay Huff and Kam Jones added 12 apiece, Isaiah Jackson had 11 points and 10 rebounds, and Ethan Thompson scored 11.
Hours before the game, Utah acquired two-time All-Star forward Jaren Jackson Jr., John Konchar, Vince Williams Jr. and Jock Landale from the Memphis Grizzlies in exchange for Walter Clayton Jr., Kyle Anderson, Taylor Hendricks, Georges Niang and three future first-round selections.
Indiana played without Bennedict Mathurin (rest), Aaron Nesmith (left hand), Andrew Nembhard (lower back), T.J. McConnell (left knee) and Pascal Siakam (rest) on the second night of a back-to-back.
Indiana led by as many as 10 early in the second quarter before Utah battled back to tie the game at 56-all at halftime.
Quenton Jackson scored 13 points in the first half for the Pacers, who trailed 91-83 after Mykhailiuk scored with 2:23 left in the third quarter.
Utah held a 96-89 advantage at the end of the third quarter after outscoring the Pacers 40-33 in the period.
Collier started at point guard in place of Keyonte George, who missed his second straight game due to a sprained left ankle.
