What We Learned From Jaren Jackson Jr's Utah Jazz Debut
Cyro Asseo breaks down the film from Jaren Jackson Jr.’s debut with the
Utah Jazz in a 120–117 loss to the Orlando Magic and explains why it was
a clear net-positive performance despite the result.
Jackson finished with 22 points on 9-of-17 shooting, hit 40% from three,
and posted a team-best +6 plus-minus in his 25 minutes. Utah won his
minutes, struggled when he sat, and immediately showed how impactful he
can be on both ends.
This video dives into:
Jackson’s scoring efficiency and shot profile
His defensive activity (3 steals, strong off-ball impact)
Early chemistry with Lauri Markkanen
Why turnovers—not fit—cost Utah the game
What stood out from the Markkanen–Jackson Jr. frontcourt pairing
How Utah’s rotation looked when JJJ went to the bench
Asseo also puts the performance in team context, breaking down lineup
impact, ball security issues, and why this debut was an encouraging
signal for Utah moving forward.
Drop your thoughts in the comments: how dangerous can the
Markkanen–Jaren Jackson Jr. duo become once the chemistry settles?
