SALT LAKE CITY – Mehmet Okur scored 12 of Utah’s final 14 points, and the Jazz beat Chicago 100-95 Monday night to sweep the Bulls for the first time in five years.

Okur finished with 20 points, scoring 12 straight despite playing with five fouls through most of the fourth quarter.

Deron Williams had 18 points and 13 assists, and Derek Fisher scored 19 points for the Jazz, including two free throws with 7.7 seconds left for Utah’s only points down the stretch that didn’t come from Okur.

Kirk Hinrich led Chicago with 26 points and Luol Deng added 23 for the Bulls, who couldn’t capitalize on a huge advantage from the free-throw line.

Chicago took 47 free throws to Utah’s 31, but the Bulls missed 10 times from the line and never quite caught the Jazz at the end.

Okur carried the load again as the Jazz improved to 15 games over .500 for the first time this season.

Chris Duhon scored 14 and P.J. Brown added 11 points for the Bulls, who fell to 2-2 on their seven-game road trip and were swept by the Jazz for the first time since 2002.

Hinrich scored 11 in the third quarter, keeping the Bulls in it after Utah went up 63-47 on a shot by Okur in the third quarter. Hinrich made a 3-pointer, then Ben Gordon hit a jumper to cut Utah’s lead to 63-52.

In the fourth, Utah’s foul trouble got worse when Okur was called for his fifth foul with 8:07 left to play. The Jazz were already without Boozer, and Andrei Kirilenko went to the locker room with an ice pack on his back midway through the period.

But after a few minutes on the bench, coach Jerry Sloan had to take his chances with Okur’s foul situation. Okur hit a 22-footer with 3:33 left to play, starting his 12-point run.

Duhon made back-to-back 3-pointers for the Bulls and the second got Chicago within 93-80 with 1:19 left in the game. Williams brought the ball back up for Utah and once he stepped inside the arc, he passed it right back out to Okur, who hit from 26 feet to put Utah back up by six.

Then Okur got another shot to bounce off the rim and in with 26 seconds left to just about seal it.
