Blows up for 38 points Saturday Clarkson had 38 points (16-29 FG, 3-12 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds and five assists over 36 minutes during Saturday's 118-117 loss to the 76ers.

Impact With Lauri Markkanen (hip) ruled out, Clarkson took it upon himself to carry the Jazz, helping the team almost pull off an improbable victory. As usual, he added nothing on the defensive end, relying on his scoring to carry his overall fantasy value. If Markkanen is forced to miss additional time, Clarkson could be a sell-high candidate.

Logs season-high rebound total Clarkson finished with 23 points (8-21 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and one steal across 35 minutes in Friday's 112-108 win over the Magic.

Impact The season-high rebound total was a nice surprise from a player who hadn't recorded more than six boards in any of his prior eight appearances, but fantasy managers are rostering Clarkson mainly for his contributions in the scoring, three-pointers and free-throw percentage categories. Through 44 outings this season, he's averaging a career-high 20.7 points per contest and is chipping in 2.7 three-pointers while shooting 81.4 percent from the line on a career-high 3.9 attempts per contest.
