Lauri Markkanen - Bounces back in win Markkanen supplied 20 points (5-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-8 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals in 36 minutes during Saturday's 111-110 victory over San Antonio.

Impact Markkanen didn't have his most productive night shooting the basketball, but Saturday was an obvious improvement in comparison to his eight-point showing Thursday night against the Bucks. The big man has managed to put up solid numbers across the board since back spasms forced him to miss three games, collecting 13 rebounds, eight assists and four steals in two appearances.

John Collins - Secures third double-double Collins chipped in 15 points (6-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and three steals across 29 minutes during Saturday's 111-110 win over San Antonio.

Impact Collins turned in a double-double for the second time in three appearances, and he also set a new top mark on the young campaign with three steals. Both Collin Sexton and Lauri Markkanen contributed in big ways for the Jazz in the victory, but it was promising to see Collins also put up productive numbers alongside Utah's big two.

Isaiah Collier - Stuffs stat sheet Collier contributed seven points (3-9 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 1-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 25 minutes during Saturday's 111-110 win over San Antonio.

Impact Collier failed to get a shot to fall from beyond the arc, but that didn't stop him from contributing elsewhere. He packed the stat sheet in his first NBA start, filling in admirably for Keyonte George (foot). Collier should fall back into a bench role following George's return to health, but Saturday was a promising step for the rookie out of USC.
