RecapLauri Markkanen had 21 points (6-of-15 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), ten rebounds, four assists, a steal, two blocks, and five 3-pointers in 120-113 loss to the Pelicans.
Lauri Markkanen had a slower start but really got going in the fourth quarter. Lauri hasn’t had the season that many hoped he would but tonight was a good bounce back performance. The Jazz ran some actions to get him open in the fourth quarter so he was able to get some good open looks. He hit a big three in the final minute that helped the Jazz take the lead. He’s just not someone who will create his own shot but is one of the better role players in the NBA.
