SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 20 (UPI) -- C.J. Miles scored 25 points Wednesday and Utah pulled away late to win its 14th consecutive home game -- 105-94 over Milwaukee.

Carlos Boozer had 20 points and 11 rebounds, but left the game in the final period with a strained muscle in his left leg.

The Jazz closed the 2007-08 season with eight consecutive home victories and remained unbeaten in Salt Lake City this year. Utah, having defeated Milwaukee in eight straight meetings, is tied for the lead with Denver in the Northwest Division.

Milwaukee, which lost its third straight, was led by Richard Jefferson's 25 points and Andrew Bogut's 16.

The Bucks owned a six-point lead in the final minute of the third quarter, but Utah scored the last two field goals of the period and then went on a 13-3 run in the fourth.
