The Jazz trail the Portland Trail Blazers by two games for fourth place in the Western Conference with two games left for each team. Portland rallied from a seven-point deficit with four minutes left against the visiting Denver Nuggets and won 115-106 about a half hour before the Jazz game ended.
The Jazz took the first double-digit lead for either team at 78-68 with 4:51 left in the third quarter, but Williams scored six points in a 10-0 run that got the Lakers back even.
