SALT LAKE CITY -- Gordon Hayward had 17 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists to lead a balanced Utah Jazz offence in a 109-86 win over the slumping Phoenix Suns on Wednesday night. Richard Jefferson scored 17 points and Diante Garrett had a career-high 15 points as the Jazz had seven players with 10 points or more in Utahs largest margin of victory this season. The Jazz shot 57.5 per cent from the field, the highest mark of any Phoenix opponent this season. Gerald Green had 17 points and rookie Archie Goodwin matched his career-best with 16 for the Suns. Playing their only road game in a nine-game stretch, the Suns have been looking to improve their playoff position. However, with a third straight loss, Phoenix leads Memphis by just one-half game the eighth and final Western Conference berth. Hayward, mired in a shooting slump (31 per cent in his previous 13 games), made plays all over the court in this one. Some fans chanted to put Hayward back in the game to get his first-ever triple-double. He just smiled as he watched the Jazz play the last 6:15 of the runaway win. Goran Dragic did not dress due to a sprained ankle and the Suns missed his playmaking abilities. Dragic twisted his right ankle in the third quarter in a loss to Minnesota on Tuesday and will have the injury re-evaluated on Thursday. Ish Smith had 13 points and five assists but the Jazz didnt respect his outside shooting and the defence wasnt spread like it would have been with Dragic. The Suns were 6 of 19 on 3-pointers. The Jazz turned a five-point lead into a 72-57 advantage thanks a 12-2 run and a 5:08 stretch where they held the Suns without a field goal. The Jazz broke it open in the fourth quarter as Garrett showed the skills he wished the Suns could have seen last season. Garrett was a late pickup for the Jazz this season after playing 19 games for Phoenix in 2012-13. Garrett had 11 points in the first five minutes of the fourth period to push the Jazz lead to 95-73. Derrick Favours scored 15 points in his second game back from a hip injury and Alec Burks scored 15 and Jeremy Evans had 11 in reserve roles. The Jazz outscored the Suns 50-36 in the paint and were equally adept from beyond the arc, making 9 of 18 attempts. After allowing a 35-point fourth quarter against the Timberwolves on Tuesday, the Suns defence was again porous against the Jazz. Utah players often beat their Phoenix counterparts down the courts and were one step quicker to the hoop on drives. Though the Jazz are buried near the bottom of the Western Conference standings, the starting lineup of Jefferson, Marvin Williams, Favors, Hayward and Trey Burke improved to 18-9 on the season. NOTES: Morris got a technical in the third quarter for yelling at official Zach Zarba after he was called for a foul on Jeffersons attempted dunk. ... The Suns largest lead was one point. ... The Jazz outscored the Suns in every quarter. ... Utahs previous biggest win this season was in a 122-101 victory at Sacramento on Dec. 11. ...

What better way to celebrate an absolutely perfect weekend? Power put on a masterful performance Sunday over a difficult street course to win the inaugural Baltimore Grand Prix. The Australian deftly negotiated hairpin turns and confidently gripped the wheel over bumpy roads to earn his second straight win and career-high sixth of the season. Power had the best time in Fridays practice session, captured the pole Saturday, then led in 70 of the 75 laps to earn the $35,000 top prize. "Im just exhausted," Power said, "but that was a championship run." Spains Oriol Servia finished second, 10.2096 seconds back, and Tony Kanaan of Brazil was third. Kanaan lost his brakes during a practice run Sunday morning, soared over Helio Castroneves car and had to drive a backup. Power lost the lead early in the race to Graham Rahal, quickly gained it back and trailed only briefly thereafter after making a pit stop. "It feels like one of my best wins," said Power. The victory moved him within five points of Izod IndyCar leader Dino Franchitti, who took fourth. Scott Dixon was fifth and Danica Patrick took sixth. Patrick has three races left after this one before dedicating her entire efforts toward stock car racing. Alex Tagliani of Lachenaie, Que., finished sixth while Torontos James Hinchcliffe ended the race in 24th. The first street race in Baltimore featured several tight turns, uneven terrain, bothersome chicane and narrow pit lanes situated in front of Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The word most often used to describe the 2.04-mile course was "challenging," and it was certainly that. There were no crashes, but the race was not without incident. During practice sessions and qualifying, the drivers expressed concern about the peerilous turns that left little margin for error.dddddddddddd Sure enough, the biggest mishap of the afternoon came on Turn 3 at the midpoint of the race. Seeking to turn on the inside, Ryan Briscoe clipped Ryan Hunter-Reay, whose car spun out upon contact. That created a logjam of 11 cars that forced rookie James Jakes out of the race. "It was just a big mess," Jakes said. "Theres nothing you really could do." Briscoe was penalized for avoidable contact and sent to the back of the pack for the restart. Servia and Kanaan each made their final pit stop during the lengthy yellow-flag period that followed. That enabled them to stay within shouting distance of Power, but they didnt have enough fuel to finish the job. Not that Servia used that as an excuse. "Power was just faster," Servia said. "The race was his to lose, and he usually doesnt make mistakes." Although Powers run was impressive, Kanaans day was by far more interesting. It began when he lost his breaks and narrowly avoided a serious crash by sliding up the right side of Castroneves car. Forced to use a backup, Kanaan started from the 27th spot and used a strategic run to work his way up to third. "It wasnt a fun ride this morning, but we recovered from it," Kanaan said. Not enough, however, to catch up to Power or Servia. "Oriol was probably comfortable because he knew I had the same strategy. I couldnt afford to pass him," Kanaan said. "And Will just took off. About then, we just settled for second and third." Power has 15 career wins and 27 top-three finishes in 85 starts. Six of the 28 starters failed to make it to the finish. The first casualty of the day occurred when Sebastian Bourdais lost his gear box and had to withdraw. Later, Marco Andretti withdrew because of mechanical breakdown. "Frustrating day," Andretti said. cheap nfl jerseys ' ' '
