Utah snapped a five-game losing streak with a thrilling 117-114 victory over Portland on Friday as Donovan Mitchell hit the go-ahead layup with 19.5 seconds left and Bojan Bogdanovic scored 27 points for the Jazz. Utah is in a revenge situation after losing 126-117 to Houston on Jan. 27. The Rockets come off a humiliating loss at Phoenix, getting blown out 127-91 while shooting only 34.1 percent and allowing 56-percent shooting by the Suns. That was a back-to-back for the Rockets, who had beaten the Lakers on the road the night before. Houston has covered only one of its last five Sunday games. Look for Utah to build on the momentum from Friday's win. Play the Jazz.
