John Stockton finished with 12 points and18assists.

Keefe had sevenpoints, two reboundsandtwoassistsin 18 minutes against the Nuggets, and he was on the floor when the Jazz's second unit made’a critical 10-2 run early in the fourth quarter. Oddly, Keefeis getting his minutes at powerforward these days — not small forward. With free agent Pete Chilcutt PEPIs struggling, Keefe gets minutes his behind Malone,or alongside him whenSloanuses a smalllineup with Malone as the 0 u center. “Ourjobis to stay ready,” said Keefe. ‘ au 217 a9 4 0 1 61 00 13 0.2.0 2.008 1118 168 3 21 USU SUMMARY 5, FT 8 UM RAPETD 28 (McCloud $8, Kiny a6PG FT26 848 afrenz02, m rove Roberson 3 BM 00 5 4 4 i Ban oo ow 8 te ocked.
