The Utah Jazz behind Jordan Clarkson and Rudy Gobert played dominant basketball against the Oklahoma City Thunder with an easy 107 - 86 victory.
The Jazz looked dominant and ready to roll through the season in a big way. Donovan Mitchell had a strong second half and showed that he’s still growing as a player. In the first half he deferred to the other playmakers on the floor and it allowed Rudy Gobert and Mike Conley to do work. Speaking of Gobert, he was a monster with 21 rebounds and 16 points. Jordan Clarkson looks like he meshes well with Hassan Whiteside in that Whiteside’s style allows Clarkson to go to work in isolation. It’s something to watch but it looks like a nice fit so far.

The Utah Jazz are at a crossroads this season. They had a fun start that led to one of the more fun stories to start the season, but now they’ve lost 4 in a row including losses to the Spurs and the Kings. They also have a losing record and are trending downward rather than up in the standings. What should they do at, or before, trade deadline?
Lauri Markkanen is also making a big name for himself this season. He’s been putting up incredible numbers with Will Hardy and is looking like an incredible pickup for the Jazz. Can he make the all-star team? We’ve already seen the Jazz have started their campaign. Here’s what they sent to Marc Stein to remind him of what the Jazz are doing this season.

Without Mike Conley the Utah Jazz are now 1-5 this season? They have two lottery picks now and it's clear that they may not be quite the team they were at the beginning of the year when Mike Conley was playing at an all star level. With him out wins have been hard to come by. What can they do to improve? Or is the defense just not good enough for them to make it?
