Conley posted 15 points (5-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and four steals across 27 minutes in Friday's win over the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
Conley has scored in double digits in each of his last four contests while dishing out five or more assists in each game as well. The veteran point guard continues to deliver as Donovan Mitchell's partner in the backcourt and, while he's focused more on being the team's main playmaker, he is still averaging 17.1 points, 5.8 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game in 2020-21. That's a marked increase compared to what he did in the 2019-20 season, his first as a member of the Jazz.

Conley amassed 22 points (8-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six assists, five rebounds and two steals in 30 minutes during Sunday's 96-86 victory over the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Conley continues to chug along at top-60 speed, rewarding those who were able to nab him in the later rounds of drafts. He is a great plug-and-play option right now with very little reason to be either buying or selling. As long as he can avoid injuries, Conley should be able to maintain this kind of production moving forward.

Conley posted 17 points (6-12 FG, 5-10 3Pt), 10 assists and three rebounds over 29 minutes in the 131-118 win over the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
After scoring a combined 17 points over his last two games, Conley was able get back on track. The 10 assists mark the first time Conley has hit double-digit assists since March of 2019. After starting the season having played in 30 minutes in five consecutive games, Conley has failed to reach that plateau in four straight games.

Conley tallied eight points (3-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 0-2 FT), five assists, three rebounds and a steal during Tuesday's 130-96 loss against the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Conley failed to shoot above 33.3 percent in each of the four quarters he played. The performance was clearly underwhelming, but it is an outlier for him. Conley is still averaging 18.6 points while shooting 46.4 percent from the field and 45.3 percent from three-point range; both of those percentages exceed his career-high marks.

Conley totaled 33 points (11-20 FG, 7-14 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven assists, two rebounds and one steal over 34 minutes in Friday's 106-100 win over the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Conley has played at least 30 minutes in each of the first five games of the season, and he led the Jazz in scoring with 33 points, his highest scoring total since joining the team last year. The 33-year-old has been an offensive force for Utah recently, posting at least 20 points in three of the last four contests.

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.
