Trey Burke has insisted that his experiences in college and high school basketball gave him confidence during the victory over the Chicago Bulls on Monday night.

The Utah Jazz point guard scored a vital three-point shot in the 89-83 overtime win, and he attributed his success in a pressure situation to his early career.

"I certainly wasn't playing well in the beginning. I missed some shots and missed some guys who were open," Burke told journalists after the game.

"Coach told me, 'You're going to make some mistakes. Just learn from them and play confident out there.'

"Playing in those big moments in high school and college prepared me for this moment. I just wanted to play with confidence at the end."

Burke spent two years at Michigan University before being picked ninth in this year's Draft.
