Ime Udoka on the #Rockets tonight: “Habits are hard to break and mentalities are hard to change. That’s why we are where we are record-wise (and) not achieving our goals. You’d be better off saying you don’t want to play and get people out there who really want to play.” pic.twitter.com/c8u9A6AhqY12:23 AM

Warriors win in Portland. Kings lose to the Pelicans. That clarifies the seeding picture a bit more. The highest the Warriors can go is now 8th. They’d need to go 2-0 and get one more Kings loss.
Remaining schedule
*Warriors: vs Pelicans, vs Jazz
*Kings: vs Suns, vs Blazers – 12:21 AM

Warriors 100, Blazers 93: FINAL. 25 points, 11 rebounds for @DeandreAyton. 18 points, 12 assists, 3 rebounds for @thereal013. 17 points, 16 rebounds for @JabariWalker. 14 points, 4 rebounds for @KrisMurray24. Last home game of 2023-24 tomorrow vs. Houston. – 12:19 AM

Ime Udoka said it looked like guys “didn’t want to play.” He said only one player showed up early (Fred VanVleet) and he got tired out.
“Habits are heard to break. Mentalities are hard to change… You would be better off saying you don’t want to play and get guys out there that… – 11:41 PM

Jazz just snapped longest losing streak since 1982 by beating Rockets tonight in a game Utah trailed by as many as 12 points. Had to survive 42 points, 9 3s from Fred VanVleet
Only players over 30 minutes: Luka Samanic (34), Keyonte George (33)
LA Clippers host Jazz Friday – 11:37 PM

Jazz beat Rockets 124-121. A really fun night for the last home game of the season, despite the end of the roster largely finishing it out.
Samanic had 22, George 20, Lofton 14/9/5/1/2.
Let it never be said that the Jazz are a team that can lose 14 in a row.
LAC tomorrow. – 11:32 PM

Jazz! They’re up 124-118 with 54. 6 seconds left. Samanic has 22, a season high, George has 20. This crowd is honestly electric and that’s amazing. – 11:24 PM

Huge credit to @utahjazz fans who on the final home game of a very difficult season still packed the Delta Center and are fully invested in a roster filled with non-guaranteed players. pic.twitter.com/U2KJsbmxkI11:11 PM

Jalen Green to check back in. He has played just 17 minutes. – 11:11 PM

Jazz challenged a call when VanVleet already had the ball for his free throw. Udoka is incensed. Jazz will win the challenge, but seemed clearly too late. – 11:06 PM

Love the disguise on that Jazz play to have the screener come up as if he’s going to be running high PnR and instead stop short and set a screen for Juzang on the elbow 3 – 10:58 PM
Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen
Dillon Brooks with a technical foul. That’s No. 15 on the season. One more and he gets a one-game suspension. – 10:57 PM
Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen
Jeff Green called for kicking out a leg on a 3-pointer he hit. Udoka challenges the call. – 10:50 PM

Jazz 98, Rockets 96 after 3. Jazz averaging 105.3 in their 13-game losing streak. Jazz with 13 offensive rebounds, just playing harder. VanVleet with 36 with six assists, five rebounds. He’ll take a seat to start the fourth. – 10:48 PM
Andy Larsen @andyblarsen
I will say the Lofton minutes have led to the most fun basketball this arena has seen in a month. He just battles down low, especially for rebounds, and is a really nice passer, too.
Jazz up 98-96 after 3Q. Can they snap the losing streak? – 10:48 PM
Andy Larsen @andyblarsen
Proposed: we either call him Kenny Lofton Jr. or call him Kenneth Lofton the Second – 10:41 PM
Ben Anderson @BensHoops
The ghost of Marc Gasol planted itself in Kenneth Lofton Jr. in Memphis and now lives with him in Utah. – 10:41 PM
Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen
Rockets on a 19-7 run since the substitutions. Holiday with six points in those four points. VanVleet with 13 third-quarter points, has consecutive 30-point games for the first time this season. He has 33 with 4 1/2 minutes left in the third quarter. – 10:36 PM
Utah Jazz @utahjazz
no thoughts, just that @tayxhendricks 𝘚𝘓𝘈𝘔 pic.twitter.com/z6ysmQViFF10:34 PM

Fred VanVleet shot 10-15 from three against the Jazz on March 23 and is now 9-10 tonight.
Insane shooting. – 10:32 PM
Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen
Aaron Holiday, who did not play on Tuesday or in the first half, checks in along with Landale and Whitmore, substitutions way earlier than usual (for obvious reasons.) – 10:28 PM
Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen
Jazz on an 13-3 run to start the second half. Have not taken a difficult shot. Rockets have put up four of their five shots to start the half from deep. Jazz so much more aggressive, they have attempted 16 free throws. Rockets have put up five. Udoka time out. – 10:26 PM
Ben Anderson @BensHoops
Cam Whitmore staring down Will Hardy after the made three.

Rockets 67, (a smattering of) Jazz 64. VanVleet with 20, Whitmore 16. Jazz shooting 51.2 %. A poor half from the team with the lead. – 10:05 PM
Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen
Jabari Smith Jr. went begging for a technical foul. Che Flores obliged. She let him vent several times before she decided it was enough. – 10:04 PM
Tony Jones @Tjonesonthenba
Very good second quarter for Keyonte George…..in command, scoring, running the team, good stuff – 10:04 PM
Steve Luhm @sluhm
Covered the press conference when Mark Pope was introduced as the head coach at Utah Valley.
As Ferris Bueller once said, “Life moves pretty fast …” – 9:55 PM
Sarah Todd @NBASarah
Fans at the Delta Center tonight for Jazz game. At halftime I’m going to be over by the team store looking to hear your thoughts and feelings for a story. Meet me there! – 9:55 PM
Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen
Amen Thompson was given a bizarre continuation, but was impressive that he went coast-to-coast in five seconds and did not seem to be hurrying. – 9:53 PM
Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen
Jazz who-he-play-for guys on a 13-0 run in 2:07 to take the lead. Rockets not matching that intensity. Jalen Green with a dreadful first half takes a seat as VanVleet, Brooks return. – 9:49 PM
Ben Anderson @BensHoops
So…
NHL to Utah
Utah To Big-12
BYU new head basketball coach

Brice Sensabaugh is cooking….Feels like I have said that a few times recently – 9:43 PM
Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen
Rockets 38, Jazz 28. VanVleet going nuts, tosses in his sixth (!) 3-pointer of the quarter. He has 20. Rockets 8 of 13 on 3s, Jazz 1 of 7. – 9:37 PM
Tony Jones @Tjonesonthenba
FVV (My little brother’s doppleganger), has 17 first quarter points – 9:35 PM
Tony Jones @Tjonesonthenba
GO TO WORK KENNETH LOFTON!!!!! – 9:33 PM
Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen
After scoring a season-high 37 on Tuesday, VanVleet with 14 with three minutes left in the first quarter. He is 4 of 5 on 3s. Rest of Rockets 1 of 3. Whitmore checking in after the time out so there will be more attempts coming. – 9:31 PM
Ben Anderson @BensHoops
My theory is the good things that Taylor Hendricks is doing now will feel a lot more impactful when he’s playing with starters next season. – 9:26 PM
Tony Jones @Tjonesonthenba
Taylor Hendricks has three first quarter assists – 9:25 PM

The LA Clippers will not have Kawhi Leonard guard Brice Sensabaugh for tomorrow’s game vs Utah Jazz
They may have James Harden bring the ball up against Keyonte George, as he is questionable
Paul George will be available to possibly shoot against Taylor Hendricks
Primo is out – 8:01 PM
David Hardisty @clutchfans
Ime Udoka says it’s up in the air if the Rockets will sit the veterans here soon: “We’ve discussed a few things. It depends on if we sit a few vets… Still to be determined.” – 7:33 PM
Mark Medina @MarkG_Medina
Clippers formally rule out Kawhi Leonard for tomorrow’s game against the Utah Jazz with right knee inflammation. Kawhi has missed the past six games – 7:27 PM

“I trained all my body to play all 82. I want to play every game.”
Jalen Green has started every game this season, and just because the Rockets are out of contention doesn’t mean he plans on sitting any of their final three games: audacy.com/sportsradio610…4:07 PM
Katy Winge @katywinge
Coach Malone said it was a battle going back and forth after the Utah game leading up to the Minnesota game, deciding if Murray would play. Said he was like a little kid, begging to play.
First thing to me postgame: “I wasn’t sitting out this game.”
