SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 6 (UPI) -- A 34-point performance from Deron Williams Thursday sent the Utah Jazz rolling to an easy 115-87 whipping of Dallas.

The Mavericks had a four-game winning streak halted and they were not competitive against the Jazz, who hit 50 percent of their shots and led by at least 20 points during the game's final 20 minutes.

Kyle Korver added 20 points for Utah, which has won two in a row after losing five out of six.

Utah led by 10 at halftime and removed all doubt by outscoring Dallas in the third period 37-19.

The Mavericks got 18 points from Josh Howard. Dirk Nowitzki, who has averaged 25 points a game this season, made only 6-of-20 shots and scored 14.
