Jordan Clarkson News, Rumors, Updates - Utah Jazz

Surpasses 20-point mark Clarkson accumulated 22 points (7-17 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block over 33 minutes during Monday's 129-107 loss to Golden State.

Impact Clarkson has been a steady source of scoring for the Jazz this season regardless of his bench role, and he has posted double-digit scoring numbers in each of his last nine appearances. He might be scoring 14.7 points per game in that span, but he needs to improve his efficiency, as he's hitting just 38.8 percent of his shots during that aforementioned stretch, including 24 percent of his threes.

Double-double off bench Clarkson provided 16 points (5-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 5-7 FT), two rebounds and 10 assists in 34 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 127-124 loss to the 76ers.

Impact It's the fourth double-double of the season for the veteran sixth man, and just the 13th of his 10-year career. Clarkson's offensive contributions remain rock-solid -- he's scored in double digits in 13 of the last 14 games, averaging 18.4 points, 4.6 assists, 3.0 boards and 1.6 threes over that stretch in 30.6 minutes a contest.

Strong showing off bench in DC Clarkson supplied 19 points (7-17 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and eight assists across 30 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 123-108 victory over the Wizards.

Impact The veteran guard came close to recording his fourth double-double of the season as he scored at least 17 points for the ninth time in the last 10 games. Clarkson's averaging 20.4 points, 5.0 assists, 3.7 boards and 1.9 threes over that stretch, and he remains one of the top bench weapons in the league.

Heroics fall just short Clarkson provided 33 points (12-25 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 12 rebounds and four assists over 38 minutes during Saturday's 127-126 overtime loss to the Rockets.

Impact Clarkson sped down the floor in the final seconds of overtime after an Alperen Sengun missed free throw, getting off a clean free-throw line jumper that bounced off the front of the rim. Despite the heartbreaking ending, he led the Jazz in scoring and is now averaging 22.0 points, 5.1 assists and 4.1 rebounds across his past eight games. The 31-year-old continues to thrive with the second unit, as Saturday marked his third game with 30-plus points off the bench this season.

No game Wednesday The NBA postponed Wednesday's game between the Warriors and Jazz due to a serious medical situation within Golden State's organization, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Warriors assistant coach Dejan Milojevic needed to be hospitalized Tuesday night after a health episode occurred during a team dinner. It's unclear when the game will be made up, but Utah's next scheduled game is Thursday versus the Thunder.

Balanced output Monday Clarkson ended with 17 points (6-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals in 27 minutes during Monday's 132-105 victory over the Pacers.

Impact Clarkson has been excellent as a scoring weapon off the bench for the Jazz this season, and he's scored at least 17 points in all but one of his nine outings in January, a span in which he's averaging a robust 29.7 minutes per game. His scoring prowess makes him an excellent fantasy alternative across all formats despite his bench role.

Solid game in sixth-man role Clarkson ended with 21 points (8-16 FG, 5-9 3Pt), one rebound and five assists over 31 minutes during Friday's 145-113 victory over the Raptors.

Impact Clarkson is a dependable fantasy target regardless of where he's positioned at tip-off, and he's very familiar with coming off the bench to provide a spark. Coach Will Hardy's choice to start Kris Dunn over Clarkson is a bit confounding, but with Collin Sexton performing well, the backcourt held up admirably prior to Clarkson's insertion. Clarkson drilled five three-pointers in the win, matching his season high.

Leads Jazz scoring from bench Clarkson contributed 27 points (12-19 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 0-1 FT), two rebounds and nine assists over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 124-111 win over the Nuggets.

Impact Utah took down the defending champions due in large part to Clarkson's decisive performance, and his resurgent play has been a huge part of the Jazz's run of victories. Although Kris Dunn drew the start at point guard, the one-two punch of Clarkson and Collin Sexton seems to be the inevitable setup for the Jazz backcourt after experimenting with Keyonte George at various points this season. Utah has now won nine of its last 11 games, and the healthy lineup should provide its share of production opportunities in the coming weeks.

Propels Utah with 21 points Clarkson tallied 21 points (7-14 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six assists, four rebounds and one block across 31 minutes in Monday's 132-116 win over the Bucks.

Impact Clarkson tied Lauri Markkanen for the team lead in scoring and was an integral part in the Jazz building a 31-point halftime advantage and in staving off the Bucks' second-half charge. He was on triple-double watch through the first two quarters (12 points, six assists and four rebounds) and poured in seven of his 21 points in the final quarter to help seal the victory. Since returning in late December from a six-game absence to a hamstring injury, Clarkson has ceded his spot in the starting five to Collin Sexton, but Clarkson's production hasn't suffered while he's bene deployed as the team's sixth man. He's averaging 18.9 points, 5.7 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 1.7 triples in 27.9 minutes per game over his nine outings off the bench.

Erupts for 36 points in win Clarkson notched 36 points (11-20 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 10-11 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Wednesday's 154-148 overtime victory over the Pistons.

Impact Clarkson scored 29 of his team-high 36 points in the second half and overtime, helping the Jazz to a stirring come-from-behind victory. He has scored at least 20 points in four of the past six games, finding his rhythm despite shifting to the bench. While he is likely to cool off at some point in the near future, Clarkson should be added across all leagues right now.

Triple-doubles in win Clarkson amassed 20 points (8-16 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 10 rebounds, 11 assists and one steal across 28 minutes during Monday's 127-90 victory over Dallas.

Impact This was the first triple-double of Clarkson's career. This also ended a drought for the Jazz, as this was the first regular season triple-double for the franchise since Carlos Boozer in 2008. Monday's game was a lopsided victory for Utah and coach Will Hardy pulled most of his key players early, but he let Clarkson play down the stretch to collect the accolade. He'll be looking to build some momentum from this performance, as he was in a pretty bad slump in December with a 35.4 percent mark from the field.

Jordan Clarkson's FIRST CAREER Triple-Double! 👏 | January 1, 2024

Puts up 24 points off bench Clarkson fouled out of Tuesday's 130-118 victory over San Antonio after recording 24 points (7-17 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 8-8 FT), six rebounds and eight assists over 27 minutes.

Impact Clarkson had been a starter to start the season but has played off the bench in the last two games, and judging by his numbers, that might not change for the foreseeable future -- he dropped 30 against the Raptors and hit 24 in this win over San Antonio. This change of role wouldn't affect Clarkson's fantasy upside, as he'd remain a valuable offensive for Utah even if he comes off the bench. He has logged at least 27 minutes in the two games in which he hasn't started.

Scores 30 points off bench Clarkson closed Saturday's 126-119 victory over Toronto with 30 points (11-22 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one steal across 30 minutes.

Impact Clarkson returned from a six-game absence and was impressive as an offensive threat, reaching the 30-point mark for the fourth time this season. This was his first outing off the bench in 2023-24, and he should return to the starting unit soon, presumably against the Spurs on Tuesday.
