Sometimes the world of sports can be overshadowed by the negative, but the Utah Jazz provided one of the most positive, best moments of the year on Monday night.

Rick Adelman trudged off the basketball court for maybe the final time in his professional life and he couldn't hide the disappointment.

After Kevin Love hit back-to-back 3-pointers again, Enes Kanter put his hands out to his side and said, "What can I do?" No one in the NBA seems to have an answer.

The struggling Minnesota Timberwolves finally got to blow off some steam. Nikola Pekovic had 27 points and 14 rebounds in three quarters and the Timberwolves blasted the Utah Jazz, 98-72 on Saturday night.

It can happen that fast. One minute buying cereal at Wal-Mart and the next playing the entire fourth quarter in the NBA. Diante Garrett is a best-case situation for the NBA Development League.

The Utah Jazz have drafted UCLA guard Shabazz Muhammad with the 14th overall pick in the first round of the NBA draft on Thursday night. A person with knowledge of the deal tells The Associated Press that the Jazz are sending Muhammad and the 21st overall pick to Minnesota for Michigan point guard Trey Burke.
