Jordan Clarkson has always been an electrifying offensive playmaker who can take over games for extended stretches off the bench.

But he’s about to be something else for the Utah Jazz during the 2024-25 season.

“I’m just trying to put my experience out there for the younger guys,” he told Bleacher Report when discussing taking on more of a veteran leadership role during the upcoming campaign.

“This is the most vocal I’ve been since I’ve played in terms of getting as much information to them as I can during the preseason as we get ready for the regular season.

“I’m trying to get them all ready. This is my first time being one of the older guys on the team, usually there are guys who are older than me who take on that role.

But I’m stepping into that, and it’s something new. I’m trying to communicate the best way I can with everybody.
