Impact With Clarkson under the weather, Talen Horton-Tucker is the likely candidate to fill in at shooting guard.

Drops 37 points in defeat Clarkson posted 37 points (14-26 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one steal over 36 minutes during Friday's 131-128 loss to Phoenix.

Impact Although the Jazz were unable to pick up the win Friday, Clarkson finished with the game with at least 30 points for the third time in his last four appearances. Across that four-game span, he's averaged 31.5 points, 4.3 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.5 steals in 34.8 minutes per matchup. The 31-year-old had a somewhat inconsistent start to the season but has hit his stride over the past week and a half.

Scores 30 points vs. Blazers Clarkson accumulated 30 points (13-19 FG, 4-9 3Pt), one rebound, three assists and two steals in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 115-99 win over the Trail Blazers.

Impact Clarkson is known for being one of the most streaky scorers in the league -- he can takeover a game when he gets hot, but he can also sink his team when his shot isn't falling. Fortunately for the Jazz, it has been the former over the last few days, as Clarkson has now scored at least 25 points in three games in a row and at least 20 in five of his previous seven.

Erupts for 33 against Pacers Clarkson supplied 33 points (12-26 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 8-8 FT), three rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 134-118 loss to Indiana.

Impact The veteran guard led the Jazz in scoring in a season-best shooting night from the floor. Clarkson has had an erratic start to the year, as have the Jazz as a whole, and through nine games he's scored 10 points or less as many times (four) as he has 20 or more. After averaging a career-high 20.8 points a game in 2022-23, however, the 31-year-old has proven he's capable of heating up quickly in coach Will Hardy's system.

Struggles Monday Clarkson ended Monday's 130-113 loss to the Bulls with seven points (3-14 FG, 1-8 3Pt), one rebound and six assists across 29 minutes.

Impact Through eight games, Clarkson has struggled to get himself going offensively. He's averaging 13.3 points and 5.0 assists, but he's shooting just 34.5 percent from the field. He'll look to bounce back against the Pacers on Wednesday.

Turns in excellent night Clarkson chipped in 20 points (8-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists and two steals over 26 minutes during Wednesday's 133-109 win over the Grizzlies.

Impact Clarkson bounced back after a concerning two-game stretch where he failed to reach double-digits. Granted, the matchups were against two potential title contenders in Denver and Phoenix, but he put a solid number up against another team with a lot of potential Wednesday. Clarkson is now averaging 13.6 points, 5.0 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.8 three-pointers in 29.4 minutes per contest through Utah's first five games.

Held to four points Clarkson contributed four points (2-10 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 0-3 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Monday's 110-102 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact This was Clarkson's second dud in a row, as he scored just seven points on 3-of-10 shooting in his previous outing against the Suns. Clarkson will likely still have the greenest of lights, however, and he will be looking to get on track against a winless Memphis team Wednesday night.

After scoring 24 points in the season opener, Clarkson has combined for 20 points in the past two games while shooting just 30.4 percent from the field. He'll look to get back on track Monday against the defending champion Nuggets.

Leads Jazz in scoring Clarkson had 24 points (8-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-8 FT), six assists and four rebounds over 31 minutes in Wednesday's 130-114 loss to the Kings.

Impact Clarkson got off to an efficient start to his 2023-24 campaign by leading the team in scoring, made field goals and made free throws. He did cough the ball up twice, though his teammates Kris Dunn and Collin Sexton combined for seven of the team's 14 turnovers on the evening. Clarkson shifted into the starting lineup last season after winning the Sixth Man of the Year award for the 2021-22 campaign and held onto that role despite the Jazz trading for Sexton. Clarkson will look to help the team get their first win of the season Friday against the Clippers.
