Jazz drop third straight in loss to Hawks at EnergySolutions Arena
The Utah Jazz slump to 31-27 after a 102-91 defeat to Atlanta as injuries and poor third quarter defense sap energy. DeMarre Carroll cites low energy and soft defense, with a hyperextended knee return providing a lift but not enough to regain the lead. The Hawks built a first quarter deficit into a consistent advantage, and Utah never led after the opening period.
