(SportsNetwork.com) - The Utah Jazz possess just two wins in their last 14 games, but they have come against last years NBA finalists. The Jazz aim to build off a recent win in south Florida when they close out their Sunshine State tour Friday against the Orlando Magic. Utah overcame a 42-point outburst from Dwyane Wade to post a 105-87 triumph in the third game of a six-game road trip (1-2). Gordon Hayward scored 29 points to lead the Jazz and Enes Kanter had 18 points. Alec Burks scored 12 points and Utah shot 53 percent from the field, making a season-best 14-of-25 shots from 3-point range. Hayward made four of his five 3-point attempts. A big-time win for us, Hayward said. The Jazz led 33-16 after the first quarter and the Heat stayed tight throughout until the visitors used a 10-2 run to pull away. Hayward and Burks both buried 3-pointers in the fourth to pad the lead. Hayward has scored 15 or more points 10 times in the past 11 games. The win ended a six-game road losing streak for the Jazz and they are 3-10 outside Salt Lake City. Charlotte and Memphis are the final two destinations on this junket for Utah. Orlando is home for the next four games against Utah, Philadelphia, Boston and Cleveland, and has a 3-6 record at Amway Center. The Magic were on the road the last two games and dropped decisions in Toronto and Boston. The Celtics put together a 109-92 win and the Magic suffered defeat for the 10th time in the past 14 tries. Nikola Vucevic paced the Magic with 18 points and 13 rebounds, Tobias Harris scored 17 points and both Channing Frye and Evan Fournier provided 13 points for Orlando, which made 43.5 percent from the field and couldnt shut down a Boston club that sank 55 percent of its shots. They were scoring at will on us, said Harris. Youre not going to beat teams if you dont play defense. Orlando is second-to-last in scoring with 93.8 points per game and will take on a Jazz team allowing 101.7 ppg. The Magic defeated the Jazz, 98-93, on the road Dec. 5 and were led by Harris 22 points. Derrick Favors had 21 points and 13 rebounds for Utah in that one, but has been bothered by an ankle problem recently. The Magic ended a seven-game losing streak in the series with that win. Utah has won its last three visits to Amway Center. Hayward averaged 14.5 ppg against Orlando in 2013-14.

The playing smarts took a little longer, and Kennard now is showing what he can do now that he understands the game.Earlier this week, Kennard became the Giants first rookie defensive player to win the NFC player of the week award after posting two sacks for the second straight week and forcing a fumble in the Giants 36-7 win over Tennessee.I came in with the mindset that I wanted to help my team, Kennard said Thursday after the Giants (4-9) finished practice for Sundays game against the Washington Redskins (3-10) at Metlife Stadium. I wanted to show the coaches and teammates that I could help them win games the best way I can, and any way I can.With recent injuries to linebackers Jacquian Williams and Mark Herzlich, Kennards playing time has increased and he has been outstanding, getting to opposing quarterbacks on the blitz.We knew he was a big, strong, powerful man, defensive co-ordinator Perry Fewell said Thursday. I think he is displaying that in his play.Fewell said Kennard also is a smarter player. He always had a good grasp of what was going on in the meeting rooms, but there was a slight hesitation on the field.A lot of times when they are out there on the field and it happens fast, as a ball coach, you can seee them thinking, Fewell said.dddddddddddd He is starting to use his athleticism and executing those moves that we have talked about in the classroom. That is why I say he has become a smarter player.Fewell said the Giants had wanted to use Kennard more in blitzing situations but the opportunities didnt always present themselves.The chances have been there the past two weeks, and a sack and forced fumble by Kennard led to a touchdown return by defensive tackle Markus Kuhn.Fellow linebacker Jameel McClain said Kennard is sponge-like in the meeting room. The 23-year-old is not overly talkative but tends to ask the right questions when he speaks, McClain said.Kennard is a phenomenal kid, McClain said. Kennard is focusing on his game and he focuses on details. For him to be so young and be such a professional, it is amazing.NOTES: Giants special teams co-ordinator Tom Quinn apologized for his run-in with punter Steve Weatherford during Sundays game. The coach grabbed Weatherford after the player walked past him following a bad punt. It was an unfortunate incident that transpired obviously, that we both wish we could have back, Quinn said. We are fiery, were competitive, and it escalated way too far. ... Odell Beckham Jr.s jersey from his one-handed TD catch is in the Hall of Fame. What an honour for it to be in there, Beckham said.
