It took Jordan Clarkson three games what the rest of the Jazz’s bench couldn’t do in 30: score 20 points.
Scoring, of course, is not the only measure of bench success, but it’s not exactly a bad thing, either. And more to the point, it was something that the Jazz’s bench was spectacularly woeful at, being ranked 28th in bench scoring before the deal.
Clarkson seems to have rectified that in a single swoop, at least for the time being. His array of drives to the rim, stepback jumpers, and 3-point shots off screens gives the Jazz someone who can score the ball immediately.
