ATLANTA — France native Rudy Gobert wore his country’s flag on his shoes and stood for its national anthem before Sunday night’s game. Then he did his best to put aside his emotions regarding the terrorist attacks in Paris on Friday long enough to help the Utah Jazz end a losing streak. Derrick Favors scored 23 points, Rodney Hood added 20 points and the Jazz beat the Atlanta Hawks 97-96 to end that three-game skid.
