JORDAN CLARKSON NEWS

Dealing with plantar fasciitis Clarkson is questionable for Thursday's game against the Spurs due to left plantar fasciitis.

Impact Clarkson missed two games to start November due to the injury but has appeared in seven straight games since then, averaging 18.0 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.3 steals in 27.3 minutes per game. If Clarkson is sidelined again, Isaiah Collier and Johnny Juzang would be candidates for increased roles.

Leads Jazz in scoring off bench Clarkson closed with 21 points (7-17 FG, 2-11 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Sunday's 116-105 loss to the Clippers.

Impact Clarkson might have come off the bench in this one, as Collin Sexton and Keyonte George are entrenched as the starting backcourt, but that didn't stop the veteran from being the Jazz's highest-scorer in this 11-point defeat. Clarkson continues to produce as a member of the second unit and has scored at least 15 points in six straight games, averaging 18.0 points per game in that span. He's putting up numbers despite his lack of efficiency, so fantasy managers in category-based leagues aren't reaping all the benefits Clarkson can deliver with his scoring exploits. He's shooting just 40.7 percent from the field in that six-game stretch.

Goes for 20 points in win Clarkson finished with 20 points (7-16 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and four assists across 30 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 win over the Mavericks.

Impact The veteran guard finished as Utah's second-leading scorer behind John Collins (28). However, Clarkson did struggle from three-point range, and he has shot 30.5 percent from beyond the arc this season. The 32-year-old has provided a fairly consistent offensive output through nine regular-season appearances, during which he has averaged 15.0 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 0.8 steals across 25.3 minutes per game.

Pops for 18 points in return Clarkson (heel) logged 18 points (5-11 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 21 minutes in Thursday's 123-100 loss to the Bucks.

Impact Clarkson had started in his previous two appearances before missing the Jazz's last two contests with plantar fasciitis in his left foot, but he ended up coming off the bench in his return to action Thursday. He played six fewer minutes than starting shooting guard Collin Sexton (27 minutes), but the split between the two players could become more even or even tilt in Clarkson's favor once the heel injury is further in the rear-view mirror. Clarkson had averaged 24.5 minutes per game in his first five outings of the season, while Sexton averaged 23.4 minutes during that same stretch.

Will play Thursday Clarkson (heel) is available for Thursday's game against the Bucks.

Impact Clarkson will return after a two-game absence due to plantar fasciitis, but this isn't entirely surprising since he was deemed probable earlier today -- and was likely to suit up, barring any late setbacks, before the scheduled 8 p.m. ET tip-off. Clarkson is averaging 13.0 points per game this season while starting in two of his five appearances.

Impact Clarkson appears to be ahead of schedule after initially being set for a re-evaluation a week from Nov. 1st as he deals with plantar fasciitis in his left foot. A return to action Thursday versus Milwaukee or Saturday versus San Antonio appears to be on the table.

Impact Clarkson was ruled out for the rest of the evening late in the fourth quarter with the game already in hand for San Antonio, so his absence won't have much of an impact on this one. He'll be considered day-to-day until the team gains more clarity on the severity of the injury.

Leads Utah in scoring Clarkson amassed 21 points (8-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and three assists in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 113-96 loss to the Kings.

Impact Clarkson started for the first time this season and delivered his best output of the campaign, showing improved efficiency with his shot and reaching the 20-point mark for the first time this season. Clarkson is battling for the starting role at the two-guard spot with Collin Sexton, and there's no question the 11-year veteran took advantage of the opportunity here. He will be reliable in fantasy regardless of his role due to his scoring prowess, but his upside would gain a few ticks in case he secures a permanent starting nod.

Impact Clarkson was one of six Utah players who scored in double digits in this contest while making his presence felt on both ends of the court. He could be in line for a more prominent role in the team's final three preseason contests, and possibly in the regular-season opener against the Grizzlies on Oct. 23, in case Keyonte George (knee) receives extra rest or struggles to recover from the injury he sustained in this win over the Mavs.
