Andrei Kirilenko scored seven of his 17 points in overtime, and Al Jefferson collected 30 points and 17 rebounds as the Utah Jazz escaped with a 112-107 victory over the visiting Philadelphia 76ers on Monday.

C.J. Miles and Devin Harris added 19 points apiece for the Jazz, who improved to 4-10 under new coach Tyrone Corbin and remained two games behind Memphis for eighth in the Western Conference.

Kirilenko took over in the extra five minutes, knocking down a 3-pointer to set the tone on Utah’s first possession and putting back an offensive rebound to push it back to 108-105. He sealed it with a pair of free throws with 18 seconds left.

Utah led 82-64 late in the third quarter when Philadelphia began to make it interesting when it bridged the third and fourth with a 23-9 run to pull to within 91-87 with 4:18 left. Utah increased its lead to 97-89 before the 76ers fought back with nine points from Andre Iguodala during an 11-2 run to grab a 100-99 edge with less than a minute to play.

Philadelphia was up 103-101 after Jodie Meeks split a pair of free throws with 11 seconds left before Miles made a layup at the other end to send it to overtime.

Iguodala finished with 23 points for the 76ers.
