Jazz's Johnny Juzang: Strong output off bench
Johnny Juzang closed with 17 points (4-9 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals over 27 minutes during Saturday's 129-103 loss to Denver.Juzang took advantage of Jordan Clarkson's (heel) absence to operate as Utah's primary scoring weapon off the bench. This 17-point output was even more surprising since Juzang went scoreless in his first two appearances of the regular season. Juzang should continue to see minutes off the bench as long as the Utah Jazz remain depleted. However, his fantasy upside is minimal, and he should only be considered a streaming alternative during specific slates.
