KELLY OLYNYK NEWS

Comes close to double-double Olynyk closed with 15 points (5-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds, six assists and one steal in 35 minutes during Saturday's 116-111 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact One of the most versatile big men in the league, Olynyk can shine as a scorer but can also contribute in other categories across the board in every game. Olynyk has gone 10 straight games without a double-double, but that doesn't mean he hasn't been productive -- he has scored in double digits in each of his last six appearances and is averaging 12.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 2.5 steals/blocks combined across his last 10 contests.

Notches 20-point showing in loss Olynyk supplied 23 points (8-13 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal in 33 minutes during Monday's 114-107 loss to the Bulls.

Impact Olynyk finished second on the team in scoring during Monday's defeat, connecting on four threes which marked his second-most of the year. Olynyk has scored 20 or more points six times this season and has surpassed the mark three times over his last 15 outings.

Efficient production in loss Olynyk tallied 21 points (9-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two blocks, one assist and one steal in 33 minutes during Friday's 129-118 loss to the Warriors.

Impact Olynyk continued his highly efficient scoring season Friday. The 31-year-old big man is shooting 55.9 percent from the field and 48.5 percent from three. Olynyk seems to have found his groove in Utah after shooting below 35 percent from three the last two seasons.

Knock-down despite loss Olynyk accumulated 19 points (6-7 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Monday's 121-114 loss to the Clippers.

Impact Olynyk was nearly perfect from the field while connecting on three-plus triples for the fourth time this season. Monday marked a quality bounce back after combining for just 10 points (4-10 FG) across two prior contests. Olynyk has been boom-or-bust in the scoring column lately, though he typically chips in with some rebounds, assists and on the defensive end of the floor.

Explodes for 27-11 double-double Olynyk totaled 27 points (7-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 11-13 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 118-111 loss to the Knicks.

Impact If Olynyk could produce like this on a nightly basis, the Jazz could consider their Rudy Gobert problem solved. Of course, Olynyk's numbers haven't even come close to Tuesday's line, and the team still weathers inconsistency in the frontcourt. Jarred Vanderbilt has helped out to fill the gap as well, but the defense in the paint still needs work.

Has decent night in Philly Olynyk finished Sunday's 105-98 loss to Philadelphia with 14 points (4-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal across 29 minutes.

Impact Olynyk was ice cold from three in this one, but he totaled 10 or more points for the fourth straight contest and put in his usual work on the boards. The big man collected 18 steals through his first 12 games of the 2022-23 campaign, so it was nice to see him swipe a steal Sunday after failing to do so in his last two matchups.

Pours in 18 efficient points Friday Olynyk had 18 points (7-10 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Friday's 130-116 win over the Lakers.

Impact Utah shot 50.5 percent from the field in the contest, and Olynyk was a big part of that, as he made all three of his three-point tries and went 7-for-10 from the field overall. The big man didn't hit a triple and combined for just 13 points over his previous two contests, so this was a strong bounce-back performance. Olynyk has been hard to figure out this season -- he's posted three performances of 20-plus points but has also scored eight points or less five times over 10 games.

Plays hero in OT win Olynyk logged 20 points (7-12 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Sunday's 122-121 overtime victory over the Pelicans.

Impact A journeyman who has been through several ups and downs throughout his career, Olynyk was Utah's hero Sunday as he made the game-winning bucket with less than five seconds left in overtime. The veteran big man has scored at least 20 points in each of his last two outings and is a major reason why Utah is off to a surprising 3-0 start.

Impact Olynyk got into foul trouble and played only 15 minutes in Utah's first game, but he was much more impactful despite again committing too many fouls Friday. The veteran center was one of three Jazz players to score over 20 points, and he he got there largely from deep, going 5-for-6 from beyond the arc. Olynyk also racked up four steals in the OT victory, falling just one theft shy of his career high.

Struggles with foul trouble Olynyk tallied eight points (3-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt) and one assist in 15 minutes during Wednesday's 123-102 win over the Nuggets.

Impact Olynyk scored the ball well in his limited minutes, but his five fouls kept him from seeing more action. The veteran big man also had three turnovers. Overall, Olynyk should be a solid scoring option for the Jazz moving forward, as he will not have to match up with Denver's frontcourt every game.

Scores 12 points in start Olynyk posted 12 points (3-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, six assists and two steals across 24 minutes in Tuesday's 118-101 win over the Trail Blazers.

Impact Olynyk bounced back after going scoreless in the first preseason game. The veteran has huge shoes to fill, and life without Rudy Gobert will be an uphill battle for the Jazz. Olynyk won't be alone in trying to fill that hole, as Lauri Markkanen and Jarred Vanderbilt are quality frontcourt additions to help the cause.
