JAZZ 114, PELICANS 108

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - Rookie Donovan Mitchell scored a career-high 41 points and powered Utah's fourth-quarter rally against New Orleans,

The No. 13 overall pick became the seventh rookie in franchise history to have a 30-plus point game.

New Orleans star Anthony Davis went down with a left groin injury at the beginning of the fourth quarter, hitting the ground under the Jazz basket and laying there until trainers came to help.

They eventually carried the All-Star off because he couldn't put any pressure on one of his legs. He was immediately placed in a wheelchair and taken to the training room. Davis had 19 points and 10 rebounds before leaving. DeMarcus Cousins led New Orleans with 23 points and 13 rebounds.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Markieff Morris scored 23 points, Tomas Satoransky added a career-high 17 off the bench, and Washington beat Detroit for its first home victory in nearly three weeks.
