SALTLAKECITY (AP) - Mehmet Okur had 20 points and 15 rebounds, Deron Williams added 19 points and 11 assists, and the Utah Jazz beat the Denver Nuggets 124-97 Saturday night to strengthen their hopes of home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs.
The Nuggets still control their own playoff destiny. If Denver beats Houston Sunday, then Memphis Wednesday, it would clinch a spot in the Western Conference playoffs.
