The Jazz desperately needed to lose this one, and they did… barely. 119-121 was the final score to this exciting game. The Hawks benefited from a monster game from Jock Landale, who lead the team in scoring with 26 points, to go along with 11 rebounds, and 5 assists. That guy seems to be pretty good, wish we would’ve traded for him. Oh well, Jaren Jackson Jr. is a nice consolation prize.

Ace Bailey – C-

A really tough shooting night for Ace as he went 9/26 from the field and 2/8 from three point range. He did have hit an insanely clutch 3 from deep to tie the game, but missed on the potential game winner. Still it is very encouraging to see the trust the Jazz have in him during these clutch moments. Despite his poor shooting night Ace logged 20 points, 6 rebounds, two steals, and a block. He also had a really athletic deflection late into the game.

Cody Williams – C

Cody Williams was a monster on defense tonight. He had three straight possessions where he made a great defensive play. The first he deflected a pass, stole it, and threw it the length of the court to Collier for an easy bucket. He then followed this with two straight possessions with a block. There is no doubt that Williams is a good defender, he just needs to find consistency with his shot, and he will be a great rotational piece for this Jazz team going forward. “If he had such a good game why give him a grade of C?” you may ask. Well because he shot 2-9 tonight and missed all 3 of his attempts from deep. Still an encouraging outing for Cody Williams though.

Lauri Markkanen – B+

Markkanen only played 23 minutes tonight, but still found a way to be really impactful. He shot well from deep, posted 18 points and grabbed 5 rebounds in his limited time on the floor.

Kyle Filipowski – A

Flip had three ridiculously clutch rebounds in the fourth, and just had a monster game overall. He shot well from deep hitting 2 of his 3 shots from deep. He was in foul trouble for a decent chunk of this game, but he still logged a double-double, finishing with 15 points, 17 rebounds and 1 assist.

Isaiah Collier – A+

Collier truly is a warrior, as he played his second straight game of 48 minutes. He didn’t just flex his stamina in this one however as he also had a career high 25 points. He also logged 3 steals, 11 assists, and 7 boards. Collier was just on another level tonight, as he remained aggressive throughout and had a beautiful lob to Ace on a fast break.

Brice Sensabaugh – B

Brice fouled out of this game with about 5 minutes left in the game, but he was impactful in this one. He shot well from deep, hitting 3/5 of his three pointers. He finished the night with 18 points, four boards and two assists. He did only make 3 of his 6 free throws however.

Svi Mykhailiuk – B+

Svi was really solid in this one, having the best +/- of any Jazzman at +10. He had a decent shooting night going 6/10 from the field for 14 points and adding 4 boards. I’m looking forward to watching him next season when we’re actually trying to play winning basketball.

Oscar Tshiebwe – A

Always a great day when Jazz nation is blessed with Oscar Tshiebwe minutes. He had a very efficient game grabbing two rebounds, and making both of his shots on the night in his 10 minutes of action.

Quin Snyder– F-

Snyder did his best to lose this one, and let Jazz nation down one last time, but his efforts were not enough.
