SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (Reuters) - Deron Williams scored 42 points and made a game-winning jumper with one second left in overtime to hand the Utah Jazz a 140-139 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday.
The Jazz overcame 45 points from Kevin Durant thanks to Williams' two-point shot from the top of the key as Utah defeated the Thunder (48-29) for the first time in four meetings this season.
Oklahoma City, seventh in the West, trailed the Jazz by 13 late in the fourth quarter before Durant led a comeback and Jeff Green made a game-tying three-pointer with eight seconds left in regulation.
