    The Utah Flash battled all game long with the Iowa Energy, but ended up losing 95-93 in overtime at the D-League Showcase Monday.

    In a game that saw 14 lead changes and was tied eight times, both teams battled back from deficits, with Utah trailing by as many as 14 in the first quarter. Both teams went back and forth in the fourth quarter, with the final 30 seconds proving to be the most exciting.

    Utah (9-8) appeared to have the game won in regulation on the strength of Orien Greene's steal and layup, with only 0.4 left on the clock. But Iowa's Courtney Sims(Image) took an inbounds pass, turned and hit a jumper from the top of the key to send the game to overtime.

    Sims finished with 25 points and 12 rebounds. Jeffers, who appeared in 14 games with the Utah Jazz during the 2009-10 season, had a game-high 27 points to go with a game-high 17 rebounds for the Energy (16-6).
