Joe closed with 16 points (5-6 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists and two steals over 25 minutes during Friday's 144-112 victory over the Jazz.
Joe made an early entrance, as the second unit came in and shared the court with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in the first quarter while fighting back from a deficit. Joe played a crucial role in keeping the game afloat before things got out of hand in the third quarter, supplying 13 of his 16 points in the first half. Friday's win represented a nice bounce-back for Joe, who recorded only seven points in 20 minutes against the Kings in the Thunder's previous contest.

Joe played his most minutes all season Tuesday, which may have been partly attributed to the fact that the Thunder were blowing out the Warriors in the second half. Regardless, Joe has solidified himself as a major contributor among the second unit, averaging 15.6 points, 3.3 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 0.4 steals, 0.1 blocks and 3.6 threes made over 25.1 minutes so far.

Thunder's Isaiah Joe: Hot from distance in season debut
Rotowire
Joe (knee) tallied 20 points (7-12 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal across 24 minutes Thursday in the Thunder's 127-108 win over the Wizards.
Cleared to make his season debut after missing the Thunder's first five games while recovering from a left knee contusion, Joe didn't exhibit any signs of rust. He was one of two Thunder bench players to put up 20 points in the runaway victory, with reserve guard Ajay Mitchell also achieving the feat. Though Joe should be a regular part of the Thunder's rotation now that he's healthy again, his playing time will likely trend down in more competitive games and when Oklahoma City gets Chet Holmgren (back) and Jalen Williams (wrist) back in action.
