Jordan Clarkson breaks Utah Jazz triple double drought

The Utah Jazz are 1 0 in 2024 after a 127 90 win over the Dallas Mavericks on Monday night. They improved to 15 19 on the season. Here’s a look inside the numbers from the Jazz’s victory: Best performance: Jordan Clarkson broke the Jazz’s triple double drought. With 20 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds, he is the first Jazz player to record a triple double in the regular season since Carlos Boozer on Feb.

13, 2008. Worst performance: Tim Hardaway Jr. played 23 minutes, wen’t 0 of 6 from 3 point land and scored just six points for the Mavericks. In a game in which Dante Exum had to leave early because of a foot injury and Luka Doncic was dealing with a sore quad, Dallas needed other guys to step up and Hardaway fell short.

14: Simone Fontecchio had 14 of his season high tying 24 points in the first quarter 3:04: Clarkson was one rebound away from the triple double when he grabbed his ninth with 5:35 left in the fourth quarter. He hunted a rebound for the next 3:04 until he finally racked up the last one needed. 19: The Jazz held Luka Doncic to just 19 points and the Mavericks didn’t have a player score more than that.

Best of the best: Despite leading by as many as 39 points, Will Hardy left Clarkson in the game specifically so he could get the triple double. Worst of the worst: The Mavericks had just 37 bench points even though they played eight guys off the bench and 17 of those points belonged to Jaden Hardy..
