Sexton was Utah’s only reliable source of consistent offense. He played for stretches alongside Micah Potter, Svi Mykhailiuk and Kyle Flipowski — a two-way player, a partially guaranteed veteran and a 21-year-old second rounder. Sexton dropped 20 points in the first half on 9-for-12 shooting as no other Jazz player cracked double figures.

Dennis Schroder scored 23 points with five 3-pointers, Brandin Podziemski contributed 20 points off the bench with Stephen Curry sitting out to rest his troublesome knees, and the Golden State Warriors beat the stumbling Utah Jazz 114-103.

Warriors star Stephen Curry sat out the front end of a back-to-back Tuesday against the Jazz due to bilateral knee injury management, but the team is hopeful he will play Wednesday.
