Phoenix, AZ - Marcus Morris had a career-high 34 points and 12 rebounds as the Phoenix Suns defeated the Utah Jazz 100-93 on Friday night.

Eric Bledsoe posted 15 points, six assists and four steals, while Markieff Morris added 12 points and eight boards for the Suns, who snapped a three-game losing streak.

Gordon Hayward tallied 24 points, five rebounds and five assists and Derrick Favors supplied 20 points and five boards for Utah, which has dropped five of its last six contests.

Favors' reverse layup with 4:49 remaining in the second quarter staked the Jazz to a 40-37 lead before Phoenix closed the half on a 17-2 run to seize control.

Isaiah Thomas hit a 3-pointer before Marcus Morris knocked down a pair from long distance to start the surge, which was capped on a Goran Dragic layup for a 54-42 Suns margin heading into the break.

Trey Burke's trey during the latter stages of the third pulled Utah within 76-71 heading into the fourth.

Phoenix, though, began the frame on an 8-2 spurt and was never challenged again. Marcus Morris finished off the swing with a jumper for an 84-73 spread.
