Jazz's George Hill: Bounces back with solid effort Monday

Hill registered 11 points (4-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, an assist and a steal across 25 minutes in Monday's 104-78 preseason win over the Clippers.

Analysis:

After going 0-for-8 from the floor in the Jazz's last game Wednesday against the Suns, Hill bounced back with his best shooting night of the preseason. The veteran is set to open the regular season as the Jazz's starting point guard, but with Dante Exum coming on strong the last two games and showing no limitations with his surgically-repaired knee, Hill could be in line for a noticeable reduction in playing time compared to the 34.1 minutes per game he logged in 2015-16.
