HOUSTON—Joe Ingles scored a career-high 27 points and the Utah Jazz squandered a huge early lead before using a big fourth quarter to regain control and beat the Houston Rockets 116-108 on Wednesday to tie their Western Conference semifinal 1-1. Ingles made a career-best seven three-pointers and star rookie Donovan Mitchell added 17 points and 11 assists. It was Mitchell’s first game this post-season where he scored fewer than 20 points and didn’t lead the team in scoring. The Jazz were behind by two with eight minutes left before using a 16-2 run to pull away. Houston regained the lead in the third quarter but couldn’t keep pace with the Jazz in the fourth as their normally potent offence went cold.
