Millsap, who was a sizzling 11-for-16 from the field, sank his third 3-pointer to give Utah a 134-130 lead with 2:15 left in the third overtime. Mo Williams and Marvin Williams scored 17 points apiece for the Jazz, who have won 13 of the last 14 meetings with the Raptors.
DeMar DeRozan had a career-high 37 points while playing 60 minutes for the Raptors, who have dropped four in a row.
