It's March 6 for the NBA, let's get into it. The Utah Jazz finally broke their 6-game losing streak with a 1-22-1-12 road win over the Washington Wizards. Their 19-year-old rookie, 5th overall pick, Ace Bailey, stole the show with a career high 32 points in just 33 minutes. Bailey shot 12 of 19 from the field, draining a personal best 7-3 pointers along with two rebounds and two steals. This came without key starters, like Kiante George and Laurie Markanan, forcing the young guard to carry the offense. That effort made Bailey the youngest player in jazz franchise history to drop 30 or more points in a game. Fans and analysts are buzzing about his quick rise just months into his career. The win spoiled Trey Young's first home game as a wizard. Bailey stepped up big time, showing he can create his own shots from anywhere on the floor. In other words, Bailey gave all the credit to his teammates for keeping him involved and setting him up for success. Look for more flashes from him as the jazz build momentum.
