So Cal NBA Capsule

Utah 109, Los Angeles 93 -------------------------------------------

LOS ANGELES (Ticker) -- Deron Williams and the Utah Jazz found a cure for their road woes - the Los Angeles Clippers. Williams scored 18 points and added 12 assists to make up for a poor day from Carlos Boozer as the Jazz posted a 109-93 victory over the Clippers on Monday.

An All-Star power forward, Boozer finished with just 12 points on 4-of-13 shooting for the Jazz, who improved on their dismal road mark thanks to Williams and a solid supporting cast. "It was definitely a good win, especially with the effort we got and the help we got from the bench," Williams said. Utah, which had not won on the road since December 21, shot 57 percent (45-of-79) from the floor and had seven players in double figures in scoring en route to its second win over Los Angeles in the last three days. The Jazz beat the Clippers, 106-88, in Utah on Friday.
