The Jazz have lost seven of nine and are facing an important four games leading into next weekend’s NBA All-Star Game in Orlando, Fla. "It’s an important four games, no doubt," Corbin told the Salt Lake Tribune. "We have to make sure that we don’t back into the all-star break. We want to be playing well going into it."

Al Jefferson leads the Jazz with an 18.4 scoring average, while Paul Millsap is bringing down 9.4 rebounds a game.

Both teams have won just three of the last 10 games.
