Come to Mizzou, play basketball, win trophies. Haven’t we always said that?
We haven’t? Maybe we should start. The power of positivity to speak things into existence and all that.
Anyway, at least now we have some precedent to work with! After finally finding what seems to be a career-best fit in Salt Lake City, Jordan Clarkson capped arguably the best year of his professional career by winning the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year award.
Clarkson, who has played for the Los Angeles Lakers and Cavaliers in addition to the Jazz over the course of his seven-year NBA career, averaged a career-high 18.4 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 26.7 minutes in 68 games during the 2020-21 regular season. He received 65 of the 100 first-place votes cast by the global panel of 100 sportswriters and broadcasters who vote for all of the league’s various season-long awards.
