The Jazz and Westbrook have met and had multiple productive discussions surrounding his impending future as a member of the Jazz organization. As the Jazz start a four-game road trip on Friday night in Toronto against the Raptors, there hasn’t been a decision made concerning Westbrook. But Westbrook, who came to the Jazz from the Lakers and has had a Hall of Fame career, has expressed a willingness to stay in Utah and put on a uniform.

“We are open to every possibility,” Jazz general manager Justin Zanik said on Friday afternoon.

The Jazz have made it a point to be transparent on where they are as an organization, and to put the proverbial ball in Westbrook’s court. They respect what Westbrook has been able to accomplish as a player. So in meetings with his representation, including agent Jeff Schwartz, they wanted to give Westbrook a say and some control over what happens next in his process as a player. -Tony Jones 

TORONTO (AP) Lauri Markkanen and Will Kessler each scored 23 points, Collin Sexton had 22 and the Utah Jazz overcame a 12-point deficit in the final five minutes to beat the Toronto Raptors 122-116 on Friday night and snap a three-game losing streak.  Kelly Olynyk scored 15 points and former Raptor Rudy Gay had 12 for the Jazz, who won despite shooting 6 for 24 from 3-point range, matching a season low. Utah also made six 3-pointers in a Feb. 6 loss to Dallas.  Pascal Siakam scored 35 points, topping 30 for the second straight game, but Toronto couldn't extend its three-game winning streak. The Raptors have not won four straight at any point this season.

LIVE Utah Jazz vs Dallas Mavericks POSTGAME REACTIONS // KYRIE IRVING TRADED Full Episode on Youtube.com/Jazzketball Join us live on Twitter or Youtube @JAZZKETBALL for Postgame FAN DISCUSSION. Go Jazz! NOW ALSO STREAMING LIVE ON YOUTUBE @JAZZKETBALL  /////////   SALT LAKE CITY (AP) Josh Green and Jaden Hardy each scored career highs of 29 points and the short-handed Dallas Mavericks, playing without Luka Doncic, stunned the Utah Jazz 124-111 on Monday night after completing a trade for Kyrie Irving.  The Mavericks acquired the eight-time All-Star along with Markieff Morris from the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for Spencer Dinwiddie, Dorian Finney-Smith, a 2029 first-round pick and two future second-round picks.  Irving and Morris arrived in Dallas on Monday to undergo physicals and were not available for the game. But their new team rallied behind Green, who averages 8.1 points, and Hardy, who scores 5.6 per game.  When Green was on the court, the Mavericks outscored the Jazz by an astonishing 39 points and won their first game in eight tries without Doncic, their leading scorer with 33.4 points a game.  Doncic (heel bruise) missed his third game in 10 days. The Jazz beat the Mavs 108-100 on Jan. 28, when the Slovenian star was out with a sprained ankle. This time the Mavericks bested the Jazz in nearly hustle category, including a 49-37 advantage on the boards.  After scoring 12 total points over six games, Hardy broke out for his career night and Dwight Powell added 12 points and a career-best 16 rebounds.  Jordan Clarkson paced Utah with 26 points on 7-for-19 shooting and Lauri Markkanen added 19 - the first time he has failed to reach 20 points in the last 21 games.  The Jazz are now 7-5 on a stretch where they're playing 11 of 13 games at home, when they hoped to gain ground on teams like Dallas, but are now two games behind the Mavs.  The Jazz struggle when their 3s aren't falling and they often fail to get back on defense. The upstart Mavs led the Jazz 27-4 on fast break points.  As could be expected with different rotations and the end of the bench getting significant minutes, the Mavericks looked out of sync at times. But they started running at every opportunity and went on a 23-6 run bridging the second and third quarters to take a 75-66 lead.  The Jazz trimmed the lead to a single possession in the fourth quarter but could never catch the Mavs.  /////////  Join Jazzketball Podcast live on Twitter to join in on the conversation before & after every game.

VanVleet kept the Raptors close with his 3-point shooting, but the Raptors couldn't complete the comeback effort.  Conley' hit two free throws with 12.2 seconds left to seal the win and the Jazz who moved above .500 at 27-26.  Jordan Clarkson scored seven of his 23 points in the final 1:39 and Walker Kessler added 17 points, 14 rebounds and matched a career-best with seven blocked shots for Utah, which has won five of its last seven games.  Siakam scored 21 before fouling out, Gary Trent Jr. had 20 points and the Raptors stayed in the game with a season-high with 25 offensive rebounds.  Kessler had NBA season-best six blocked shots in the first quarter, tying the franchise record that Mark Eaton set on Feb. 18, 1989, against San Antonio. Eaton had six blocks in both the second and fourth quarter and 14 overall in that game. /////////  Join Jazzketball Podcast live on Twitter https://twitter.com/Jazzketballl to join in on the conversation before & after every game.
