SALT LAKE CITY -- The Dallas Mavericks had no answer for Gordon Hayward.

 

Hayward scored a season-high 27 points, including four 3-pointers, to lead the Utah Jazz past Dallas 100-94 on Monday night.

 

"He hurt us all night long," Dallas coach Rick Carlisle said of Hayward. "He's a very athletic player. He is very skilled and he understands how to play. He got to us time and time again."

 

Hayward hit back-to-back 3s and Marvin Williams followed with another to get the Jazz even at halftime. Hayward drained another with 2:19 left in the fourth to bump Utah's lead to 93-86.

 

Dirk Nowitzki scored six straight for Dallas after that but also was called for a charge with 32 seconds remaining as he tried to get Dallas within two.

 

"When we buckle down and we really guard people, we're a pretty scary team," Hayward said.

 

Nowitzki led the Mavs with 20 points in his second start this season after missing the first 27 games because of offseason knee surgery.

 

The Jazz (18-18) wouldn't let anything come easy for the perennial All-Star, especially in the fourth when the game became nasty.
