Clarkson struggled last week when it came to shooting the ball, but the Utah Jazz still went on to post a 3-1 record. They currently find themselves as one of the top teams in the Western Conference with a 7-1 record on the season. Clarkson recently caught fire in a big way after putting up a 30-point performance last night against the Atlanta Hawks. For a scorer like Clarkson, all it takes is one game to start putting together an impressive stretch of games.
