Conley posted 20 points (8-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, nine assists, a steal and a blocked shot across 32 minutes in Monday's 110-109 win over the Thunder.

EDGE Analysis

Not only was it Conley's first double-double with the Jazz, but he also came one assist short of the hat trick. It's taken a couple of games for Conley to warm up, a trait that he mimicked last season as he settled in with his new team. He enters his second season in Salt Lake City with a firmer hand on the offense, and he has a vast array of weapons at his disposal as the Jazz's defacto floor general.

Conley produced 20 points (6-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 6-8 FT), six rebounds, four assists and a steal across 34 minutes in Saturday's 116-111 loss to the Timberwolves.

EDGE Analysis

Although the Jazz were on the losing end of this matchup, Conley had a decent game. He didn't play well at all throughout the preseason and only collected two assists in the season opener.

Conley will not play in Saturday's preseason opener against the Suns for rest purposes.

EDGE Analysis

No surprise here, as Conley just cleared quarantine and returned to practice Tuesday. Look for the Jazz to ease their veteran starting point guard back into the swing of things before the regular season tips off.

Conley (not injury related) went through Tuesday's practice, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Conley had close contact with a person who tested positive for COVID-19, so he missed practice time. However, he joined the team Tuesday and will presumably be available for Utah's first preseason game, which is Saturday against the Suns.

Coach Quin Synder intimated that his preference to rest players will be to sit them out entirely rather than try to manage their minutes, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports. Given Conley's (COVID-19 protocol) age of 33, there's a strong chance he'll have rest days.

EDGE Analysis

Conley, Joe Ingles and Bojan Bogdanovic are the three players on the Jazz older than 30, so we could see rest days for that trio. At the same time, Conley will be looking to have a bounceback season after the early portion of his 2019-20 campaign was a disaster. He picked things up at the end of the year, though, and across his final 12 appearances, he averaged 17.2 points on 45/40/95 shooting, 5.3 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.1 steals.

Conley was not at practice Friday after having close contact with person who tested positive for COVID-19, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Conley will remain sidelined until it is established that he has not also contracted the virus. The veteran guard said he expects to be quarantined through Monday as long as he continues to test negative. His status for the preseason, which begins Dec. 12 for Utah, will depend on continued negative tests.

Conley will not exercise the early termination option in his contract for the 2020-21 season, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

This is all but a formality for Conley, who by opting in will guarantee himself the $34.5 million on his contract for next season. The veteran guard had a disappointing first year in Utah, but he found some level of comfortability late in the season, and the hope is that he'll serve as a more productive complement to Donovan Mitchell in 2020-21. Conley finished last season with averages of 14.4 points, 4.4 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 0.8 steals in 47 games.

Conley amassed just eight points (2-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven assists, four rebounds and three steals in 40 minutes during Monday's 80-78 loss to Denver.

EDGE Analysis

Conley picked a bad time to go cold from the floor, bumbling his way to eight points in the Game 7 loss. Despite this effort, Conley has certainly looked better during his time in Orlando. After an indifferent season in Utah, Conley was beginning to look more like the player we had come to expect. It will be interesting to see if he can maintain things heading into next season or whether another decline is on the cards.

Conley produced 21 points (7-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six assists, five rebounds and a steal across 34 minutes in Sunday's 119-107 loss to the Nuggets.

EDGE Analysis

Despite an excellent outing, Conley's most poignant moment occurred when Rudy Gobert scolded him for blowing a defensive assignment in the fourth quarter, and it resulted in a chair-kicking tantrum from the center. Despite that brief disruption, Conley hit some pivotal three-pointers down the stretch that kept the Jazz within striking distance. He also excelled in getting the ball to playmakers throughout the contest. He'll continue to direct the offense alongside Donovan Mitchell during Tuesday's Game 7 battle.

Conley registered 17 points (5-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five assists, four rebounds, a steal and a block in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 117-107 Game 5 loss against the Nuggets.

EDGE Analysis

Conley topped the 25-point plateau in his first two games in the playoffs, but he couldn't repeat that performance in Game 5 after struggling from the field. He only made five shots and connected on 33.3 percent of his treys. The veteran point guard will hope to deliver a better scoring effort in Game 6 on Thursday.
