Jordan Clarkson Drops Career-High 45 Points In Win Saturday
3 years agoSince joining the Utah Jazz, point guard Jordan Clarkson has emerged as one of the league's most consistent scoring options off the bench. He took that role to another level in Saturday's victory over the Kings, where he erupted for 45 points on 15-for-21 shooting overall, setting a new career best for a single game scoring performance. Even in the midst of a season where he has shot a career-low 41.6% overall, Clarkson was a beacon of efficiency vs. Sacramento, going 7-for-13 from behind the arc as well. Fantasy managers banking on a repeat performance Monday against the Bucks may have to check their expectations as Mike Conley is set to return to the backcourt mix, capping Clarkson's ceiling, even as his floor remains as sturdy as ever.
