Utah Jazz star Jordan Clarkson believes he’s enjoying on the caliber of an All-Star participant, however his focus at present lies extra on profitable for his group.
Clarkson stated this in a media availability on January 13, nearly per week earlier than the NBA All-Star voting ends on January 21 (US Eastern Time).
“I think I’m playing at an All-Star caliber,” Clarkson stated. “I think I have been playing at a high level. I know in the West they got a lot of talented guards but I think I could represent Utah, and the Philippines even, at the All-Star even if it happens.”
While Clarkson stated he could be excited if he could be a part of the All-Star weekend, he’s extra involved about getting wins for the Jazz.
“I definitely would be grateful and will be excited if that happens,” stated Clarkson. “Right now, [I’m] not concentrating too much on that. I’m concentrating on getting these wins and trying to keep propelling this team to the top of the West.”
In the latest fan returns launched by the league on January 20, Stephen Curry, Luka Doncic, Ja Morant, Shai Gilgeous Alexander, and Klay Thompson composed the highest 5 of the outcomes of the guards within the West.
Fans account for 50% of the vote, whereas NBA gamers and the media represent the opposite half.
The All-Star Weekend will likely be hosted by the Jazz and be held in Salt Lake City on February 19.
