Jaren Jackson Jr. led the Jazz with 22 points (7-of-19 FGs), five rebounds, three assists, two steals and two three-pointers in a 115-111 win over the Heat on Monday.
Jackson wasn’t as efficient as he was in his debut for Utah, but he was still able to contribute similar numbers. However, it had a chance to be a much better night. He scored 17 points in the first half, but he wasn’t part of the closing lineup. Managers should expect that trend to continue, which will limit Jackson’s impact in the box score. Still, he’s at least playing, and he’s been productive to this point.
