MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 26 (UPI) -- Mehmet Okur led seven Utah players in double figures with 25 points Wednesday, carrying the Jazz to a 120-103 decision over Minnesota.

Ronnie Brewer had 20 points for the Jazz, C.J. Miles had 15 and Deron Williams 13 to go with 13 assists.

Minnesota, losers of four straight and nine out of 10, got 24 points from both Kevin Love and Ryan Gomes.

The game was tied early in the fourth quarter, but Brewer hit a 3-pointer that touched off a 10-2 Utah run.

Utah has defeated Minnesota in four straight meetings, three of them coming this season.
