Jazz suffer franchise-record 55-point rout in 150-95 loss to Hornets

Utah Jazz suffered their franchise-record worst defeat since relocating to Utah, a 150-95 blowout to the Charlotte Hornets that left them 55 points behind after a 31-point first quarter. They shot 40% from the floor and 22% from three and were badly out-rebounded—Hornets with 21 offensive rebounds on their misses vs. Jazz’s 20 defensive boards. Cody Williams posted a -60 plus-minus, and with Lauri Markkanen resting and Jusuf Nurkic and Ace Bailey sidelined, four of five starters were 22 or younger. Brice Sensabaugh led Utah with 26 points, and coach Will Hardy urged the team to stay together and keep pushing after a humbling night.

Phillies Dominate MLB with Historic Winning Streak

The Philadelphia Phillies have matched their best 35-game stretch in franchise history, going 29-6 and sweeping seven of the last 12 series. Despite having the easiest schedule in MLB, their impressive run differential and top stats in runs scored and ERA highlight their dominance. Critics argue their record is inflated by weaker opponents, but the true test will come in October and upcoming series against stronger teams like the Milwaukee Brewers and Baltimore Orioles.
