PHOTOS: Best images from the Thunder’s 120-119 OT loss to the Jazz

The Oklahoma City Thunder returned from the All-Star break with a chance to get to .500 and failed to do so once again in a 120-119 overtime loss to the Utah Jazz.

Luckily for the Thunder, this is the first of four meetings against the Jazz in the final 25 games of the regular season.

It was an All-Star battle as Lauri Markannen finished with 43 points and 10 rebounds while Shai Gilgeous-Alexander finished with 39 points. With a chance to win the game, Gilgeous-Alexander’s banked elbow jumper rimmed out.

Let’s take a look at some of the best photos from the Thunder’s one-point overtime loss to the Jazz.
