Jazz's Kyle Korver: Keeps firing against Pistons
Korver scored 19 points (5-14 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT) while adding two rebounds and an assist in 32 minutes off the bench during Monday's 100-94 win over the Pistons.
Backcourt injuries have forced the Jazz to lean more heavily on Korver than they intended when they acquired him, but the veteran sharpshooter has stepped up, going 14-for-32 (43.8 percent) from beyond the arc over that last four games while averaging 13.8 points and 25.8 minutes a night. He doesn't offer much other than his three-point shooting from a fantasy perspective, but as long as he's seeing this kind of court time, he can move the needle in that category.

Jazz's Donovan Mitchell: Stays hot against Pistons
Mitchell scored a game-high 28 points (9-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-9 FT) while adding five rebounds, two assists and two steals in 36 minutes during Monday's 100-94 win over the Pistons.
After the game, Mitchell credited a courtside heckler for motivating him, but the second-year guard hasn't seemed to need much incentive lately to fill up the bucket. He's scored at least 26 points in six straight games, averaging 30.0 points, 5.0 assists, 4.5 boards, 3.7 three-pointers and 1.3 steals over that stretch, and the hot streak has carried his numbers on the season back up to the level he reached in his breakout rookie campaign.

Jazz's Rudy Gobert: Huge night on glass in win
Gobert scored 18 points (6-9 FG, 6-8 FT) while adding 25 rebounds, three assists and two blocks in 36 minutes during Monday's 100-94 win over the Pistons.
Matched up against Andre Drummond in a heavyweight rebounding battle, Gobert nearly doubled Drummond's total en route to tying his own single-game career high. Gobert remains tied with the Sixers' Joel Embiid for the league lead in double-doubles with 36, although the Jazz center has needed four more games to reach it.

Neto (groin) won't play Monday against the Pistons, Andy Larsen of KSL.com reports.

Jazz's Joe Ingles: Efficient 16 points in win
Ingles turned in 16 points (6-14 FG, 4-10 3Pt), four assists and two rebounds across 31 minutes in Saturday's 110-102 win over the Bulls.
As Utah's backcourt suffers from a host of injuries, Ingles has performed well in picking up the slack, averaging 15.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5.0 assists over the past three games. It's been a real see-saw for Ingles this season, as he's shown the tendency to blow up and then regress to a single-digit scoring total the following game. While you can't exactly fade Ingles entirely, his volatility will be a source of frustration moving forward.

Jazz's Kyle Korver: Wakes up with 16 points off bench
Korver totaled 16 points (6-11 FG, 4-8 3Pt), five rebounds and a blocked shot across 26 minutes in Saturday's 110-102 win over the Bulls.
The Jazz finally deployed their veteran 3-point specialist appropriately on Saturday, as they have been hit by a rash of injuries in the backcourt and Korver is one of the few healthy options on the roster. Now that Grayson Allen has re-emerged from injury, there may not be enough opportunities for Korver to make a significant impact, though he will occasionally pop with a nice 3-point total.

Jazz's Rudy Gobert: Double-doubles in win
Gobert totaled 15 points (5-6 FG, 5-9 FT), 16 rebounds, eight assists, two blocked shots and a steal across 40 minutes in Saturday's 110-102 win over the Bulls.
Two more dimes would have netted Gobert a triple-double. The Utah big man has posted four double-doubles in a row after a trio of mediocre games December was a hot month for Gobert, as he averaged 14.2 points, 12.1 rebounds and 2.1 blocked shots over 14 games.

Jazz's Donovan Mitchell: Continues tear with 34 points
Mitchell turned in34 points (11-24 FG, 4-13 3Pt, 8-10 FT), six assists, six rebounds and two blocked shots across 38 minutes in Saturday's 110-102 win over the Bulls.
With a host of point guards ailing, Mitchell has been superb in shouldering the load for the Utah backcourt. This was his third-straight performance of 30 points or more, and one should consider Mitchell a high-value target during this rough patch of injuries
