The Jazz saw the tandem of Deron Williams and Carlos Boozer start the game and score 23 and 22 points, respectively. When that duo needed a rest they were comfortably replaced on the court by CJ Miles and Paul Millsap, who scored 20 and 18 off the bench.Turkish star Mehmet Okur added 11 points with seven rebounds and three assists for the Jazz. Utah was coming off an embarrassing 96-83 loss in Atlanta Friday in which Williams and Boozer combined to score just eight points. Williams issued an apology after the game through the media and from his Twitter account.
The Bobcats cut Utah’s lead to as few as six points thanks to 11 fourth-quarter points from D.J. Augustin, but Williams netted all of his free throws down the stretch to seal the victory.
