Jordan Clarkson Returning From Six-Game Absence
1 month agoUtah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (groin) is available for Monday's game versus the Dallas Mavericks. A strained right groin sat Clarkson down for Utah's previous six matchups, but the 31-year-old microwave scorer will play in an advantageous setup against a Dallas team giving up the fourth-most DraftKings points to opposing shooting guards in 2023-24. This contest's implied total is also set at 238.5 points, the largest on Monday's 11-game slate, so a high-scoring affair could be in store. Clarkson was heating up in his last four games before going down, averaging 23.0 points, 4.3 assists, 3.5 rebounds, 2.0 triples, and 1.5 steals amid this stretch from March 4 to March 12. It wouldn't be surprising if the 29-42 Jazz elected to monitor the veteran's minutes, however, during his first game back in the mix.
