Lauri Markkanen was the star of the Utah Jazz last year on his way to the most improved player in the NBA. Against the Portland Trailblazers he was a dominating force with array of moves for a 7 footer that is unprecendented in the NBA. David Locke, radio voice of the Utah Jazz and Jazz NBA Insider, reminds us that Lauri making a jump to an even better player is the biggest way the Jazz get better
Head Coach WIll Hardy continues to play with combinations and moved Jordan Clarkson to the starting lineup. Clarkson’s veteran moxy and passing skills opened up the entire offense for the Utah Jazz as his 3 first quarter assists spured the offense on.
Clarkson into the starting lineup opened the door for numerous other combinations and creative lineups from Hardy. Locke digs into what they were and how they achieved.

it felt good to see this line up ,and john added to it
I am SO HAPPY the Jazz resigned JC this offseason.
And the JC#2 (John Collins) is a muthaf*ck@ and if his corner 3ās are droppingā¦ omg š³ This team will be scary good šš
Jordan Clarkson is the only guy throwing the alley oop in the half court offense.
What happened with Boler?
āI think Jazz needs to trade sexton. He hasn't improved on guards skills one bit. His game doesn't work with current roster, we don't really need dedicated 6th man scorer with tunnel vision.
Every dayeršš¼ even when I canāt watch on the day of release Iāll still go back and watch the show later.
Loved you on the TV broadcast! Nothing against Boler, but I've been wishing you would take over, at some point.
If clsrkson is your second best player then youāre in trouble and it shows youāre obviously using sexton wrong. Just trade him because clearly ppl forget how good sexton is and youāre continuing to overlook this dude itās sad. Heās not a 6 man, and for sure shouldnāt be behind THT or clarkson. Why are we putting all this stock in preseason. If the goal is to start you Mr best 5 sexton should be starting . Use him right with the right combos like you did last game. Him and clsrkson can play together if clarkson is willing to pass. Iām confused why clsrkson is being praised as a good passer when heās shown selfishnesses many times last season. He can be a good passer if heās willing thatās him and Collin looked their best last game
I think Jordan and Kris need to start or Jordan and THT.
Is jazz plus only available to Utahns?
Good job on the broadcast locke
What matters most who is willing to pass the ball around in first 20 seconds of the play clock. Setting up the easy shot.
ESPN rankings are worthless and not worthy of talking about.
Hey David how can we watch kjazz which TV service offers it
David, you were awesome at the broadcast! I agree that Lauri can imrove his scoring stats near 30 points. I think also that John collins will be real important.
weird JC wasn't starting before
Sleeping on Dunn whose numbers have been great in limited minutes
Great game Saturday night, Lauri and the guards were moving the ball well and could do no wrong. It was great to see Locke fill in for Bollerjack.
One thing I always wondered why people so adamant Jordan Clarkson shouldn't start, he is clearly in this current Jazz a starter player. Think some are just too stuck in Donovan Mitchell team when JC was 6th man.
