INDIANPOLIS (AP) — Myles Turner had 26 points, seven rebounds and six blocked shots, and the Indiana Pacers beat the Utah Jazz 140-112 on Friday night for their third straight victory. Pascal Siakam scored 22 points and Bennedict Mathurin had 20, going 12 for 16 from the free throw line. Collin Sexton had 27 points and Johnny Juzang had 17 for Utah. Turner had four blocks in the decisive third quarter. Siakam had a season-best four blocks and Indiana registered a season-best 17 — two short of the franchise record set in 1979 at Washington. Takeaways Jazz: The league’s worst team provided a glimmer of hope by beating the Pacers at their own game — for a half. They were quicker, made 10 3s and even grabbed 11 offensive rebounds in the first two quarters. But the short-handed roster eventually ran out of gas. Pacers: Indiana overcame a poor first half by digging down and finding a way to win. The Pacers will need to be cleaner and more efficient in the playoffs, but they’re inching closer to getting home-court advantage in the first round for the first time since 2014. Key moment Indiana scored nine straight to turn an

Utah’s Clayton Keller becomes 2nd NHL player from Missouri to reach 500-point plateau | Sports

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Clayton Keller of the Utah Hockey Club became the second player from Missouri and fourth-youngest active from the United States to record 500 regular-season NHL points. Keller assisted on Barrett Hayton’s power-play goal less than a minute into the second period Saturday night against league-leading Winnipeg after scoring a goal in the first. Hayton assisted on Keller’s 26th goal of the season. Keller joined Hall of Famer Pat LaFontaine as the only Missouri natives to reach the 500-point mark. Among U.S.-born players currently in the league, only Auston Matthews, Matthew Tkachuk and Patrick Kane got there at a younger age than Keller’s 26 years and 250 days. The seventh pick in the 2016 draft when Utah was in Arizona and known as the Coyotes, Keller is a strong candidate to make the U.S. team at the 2026 Olympics after being left off the roster for the 4 Nations Face-Off.
