IN MEMORY

Utah held a moment of silence before its 102-88 win over New Orleans on Saturday in honor of owner Larry H. Miller, 64, who died Friday of complications from diabetes. A short video tribute was shown and a lone spotlight shone on the empty blue chair across from the visitors' bench where Miller sat during home games.
