For what it's worth, there's a heck of a lot more jazz music in New Orleans than in Salt Lake City.

Nevertheless, a pair of Utah Jazz players were in perfect harmony during Saturday's game against the Pelicans.

Alec Burks drove the lane with the determination of a ragtime drum roll as his teammate, Rudy Gobert, awaited his cue along the baseline - or bass line, if you want to continue the jazz puns.

After receiving a perfect behind-the-back pass from Burks, the 7-foot-1 Frenchman got creative, and ad-libbed a mid-air finish worthy of his team's musically-improvisational nickname.

Burks and Rudy!! Pretty!
