OREM — Albuquerque went 8 of 8 from the free-throw line down the stretch to seal a 109-103 victory over the Flash and split the two-game series.

"It was a tough home loss to swallow," said Flash coach Brad Jones. "I thought we played well defensively and I liked our effort, but in the end we just didn't get the necessary stops to win the game."

Utah had five in double figures led by a game high 26 points and 7 rebounds from forward Carlos Wheeler. Orien Greene added 19, and Bennett Davis had 17 off the bench for Utah in the loss.
