The Utah Jazz defeated the New Orleans Pelicans, 106-104, at the ESPN Wide World of Sports in Orlando, Florida.

The Jazz and the Pelicans delivered a nail-biting contest right from the get-go, although the Jazz got off to a better start and built an 11-point lead midway through the first quarter. New Orleans woke up just before the first quarter ended, leading 26-23 after one and stretching their lead to 16 points nearing the end of the first half. It seemed as if the Pelicans would come away with the win, as they led 60-48 at the break and 87-79 after three, but the Jazz turned things around in the final minutes. Utah tightened things up on defense and made some key buckets down the stretch to mount a comeback, ultimately leading by two in the final seconds. Brandon Ingram could have won the game for the Pelicans with a last-second three, but his effort went in and out of the rim, allowing the Jazz to secure a come-from-behind victory.

Donovan Mitchell and Mike Conley each scored 20 points for the Jazz, although Mitchell did a better job of rounding out the stat sheet with five boards and five assists as well. Rudy Gobert posted a strong double-double of 14 points and 12 rebounds, while also adding three blocks. Utah's leading scorer came off the bench, however, as Jordan Clarkson paced the entire offense with 23 points while logging 33 minutes.

Brandon Ingram led the way for the Pelicans with 23 points and eight rebounds, while Jrue Holiday chipped in with 20 points, five boards, four assists and three steals. Zion Williamson had 13 points in just 16 minutes while shooting 6-for-8 from the field. J.J. Redick (21 points) and Josh Hart (10 points, three rebounds) delivered productive performances off the bench for New Orleans.
