Kyle Filipowski made his NBA starting debut for the Utah Jazz on Thursday, facing off against San Antonio Spurs newcomer Victor Wembanyama. Despite the 106-88 loss, Filipowski had a strong performance with 12 points and five rebounds for the Jazz. This was his second game in a row scoring double-digit points, coming after he scored 12 points and grabbed eight rebounds against the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday.

A Rookie Finding His Place

Filipowski had limited playing time in the first three games of the season, as he missed the first game and only played for a total of nine minutes in the other two games. However, due to some Jazz players being unable to play, Utah decided to give the rookie an opportunity this week, and he has not failed to impress. Fans have been quick to applaud his consecutive impressive showings, eager to witness the potential of the former Duke standout.

A Potential Steal for Utah

Expected to be chosen in the first round by many, Filipowski fell to the second round, where Utah drafted him with the 32nd overall pick. While it is still early in the season, Filipowski’s recent showings indicate he may be a beneficial inclusion to the Jazz’s youthful group. While he still has room for growth, his impressive performances indicate that he has the potential to play a crucial role in Utah’s rebuilding efforts.

Looking for Their First Win

The Jazz have yet to secure a victory, losing their first five games. With Filipowski finally getting into a groove, the team is optimistic that his enthusiasm and talent will turn the tide as they aim for their inaugural win of the season.
