Leads team with 23 points Clarkson racked up 23 points (8-15 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one block over 30 minutes during Sunday's 110-102 victory over the Clippers.

Impact Clarkson was unconscious beyond the arc in Sunday's win, drilling six three-pointers in nine attempts. Though Clarkson has spent most of his career as the first man off the bench, his stint in the starting lineup has served him well. Through 11 games, he's averaging 17.9 points, 5.3 assists and 4.6 rebounds.

Goes for 22 points in loss Clarkson racked up 22 points (9-20 FG, 4-9 3Pt), five rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 103-100 loss to the Mavericks.

Impact Clarkson reached the 20-point mark for the fourth time in nine contests this season and by now, it's quite common to see him scoring in double digits since he's widely seen as one of the best pure scorers in the league. The efficiency numbers weren't there, but this was Clarkson's second-best scoring mark of the campaign, and he also put up a season-best figure in terms of assists, so he definitively left his mark despite the tight loss. The former Lakers guard is averaging 16.0 points, 5.8 assists and 5.2 rebounds per game in his first full year as a starter since the 2015-16 campagin.

Puts up inefficient shooting line Clarkson notched 11 points (3-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-5 FT), seven rebounds and seven assists over 33 minutes during Monday's 121-105 win over the Grizzlies.

Impact Clarkson struggled massively from deep and needed 14 shots just to score 11 points, but he still found a way to salvage his fantasy performance since he ended just three rebounds and three assists away from putting up a triple-double -- both were season-high marks in the respective categories. Even though Clarkson is primarily known as a scorer, he's averaging 5.3 assists and 4.5 rebounds while also putting up 16.5 points per game.

Does damage from deep Clarkson produced 20 points (6-14 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 109-101 victory over the Rockets.

Impact Clarkson did the majority of his scoring from beyond the arc, drilling five triples while also contributing on the defensive end. He's now swatted a shot in four straight contests and managed to record his first two steals of the season Wednesday evening. While Clarkson has yet to show consistent production in steals or blocks over the years, he should continue to be a solid source of points, rebounds and assists.

Leads all scorers in loss Clarkson accumulated 17 points (7-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one block over 28 minutes during Monday's 114-108 loss to Houston.

Impact Although Collin Sexton eagerly waits in the wings, the Jazz have opted to give their perennial sixth man the starting gig in the backcourt, at least for now. Clarkson's skill set is better-suited for the off-guard spot, as Sexton's experience playing off the ball is more limited. Clarkson's spot in the starting five isn't set in stone, however.

Drains seven triples in OT victory Clarkson chipped in 29 points (10-17 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, six assists and one block in 35 minutes during Friday's 132-126 overtime win over the Timberwolves.

Impact Clarkson made his second straight start to begin the season and was key to Utah moving to 2-0, as he led the team in points and ranked second in assists. The veteran guard put up only 10 points in the season opener, but he caught fire Friday, draining seven of 12 shot attempts from deep. He may not remain in the starting five once Collin Sexton gets up to speed, but Clarkson has already proven that he can be an effective scorer even when coming off the bench.

Leads all Jazz scorers in win Clarkson posted 19 points (5-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, an assist and a steal across 23 minutes in Tuesday's 118-101 win over the Trail Blazers.

Impact There's no doubt that Clarkson will play an essential role as the Jazz try to move on without Donovan Mitchell. Although he drew the start Tuesday, it's more likely that Collin Sexton will begin the season as the team's starting shooting guard. Clarkson is most at home as an offensive spark off the bench, and conventional wisdom suggests that his role will remain the same.
