Gordon Hayward's game-winning buzzer-beater vs Cavs

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah -- The blues for the Cleveland Cavaliers continued Wednesday night as Gordon Hayward nailed a game-winning step-back jumper at the buzzer to lift the Utah Jazz to a 102-100 victory. Hayward finished the game with 21 points and Derrick Favors added 21 points as well to go with 10 rebounds. Before the game Cavaliers coach David Blatt said it would take some time to gel, but this can't be what he had in mind. Hayward hit a jumper over Tristan Thompson after LeBron fell down trying to get over a screen. Plenty of attention will be paid to the Cavaliers – especially their passing and assist numbers – tomorrow, but for now, celebrate Gordon Hayward. It’s always tough to win in Salt Lake City because the fans are relentless and the altitude thins the air, and the Cavaliers took a blowout loss last night at the Portland Trail Blazers. But this loss wasn’t about teaching lessons. It’s a game against a team that probably won’t even come close to a playoff berth, and the Cavs probably should have won it but got little from anyone other than James and Kyrie Irving (34 points).
