The Utah Jazz team has youth and veterans a plenty. Kevin Love showed on Friday night that he may in fact still have some left in the tank.

In the latest Stein Line, Marc Stein reiterated his latest on the Lauri Markkanen situation. A Thursday night update because NBA Trade Season is closing in? A must. The latest in full with Dec. 15 fast approaching: https://t.co/FqCwodAFUd 📷: @chicagobulls pic.twitter.com/XkkQcsVxAw

Kevin Love doesn't play a lot of minutes for the Utah Jazz. Friday, the 37-year-old turned back the block and reminded the world he's an NBA champion and Hall of Famer.

Although former UCF Knights legend Taylor Hendricks was drafted ninth overall by the Utah Jazz at the 2023 NBA Draft, his October 2024 injury will be the first thing that most will remember him by. Hendricks suffered a scary leg injury in Utah’s third game of last season. After his injury, Hendricks was done for the season.

The Utah Jazz are one of the few teams around the NBA that have some immense cap flexibility heading into this year's trade deadline, and there might be an opportunity for them to use it to their advantage.

The Grizzlies host the Jazz on Friday as 7.5-point favorites with a total of 238.5 points.

The final stats for George: That's a stat line that hasn't been done for the Jazz in a long time. According to StatMuse, the last time it happened for Utah with a 39-6-8-2 game like this was 1981 for Adrian Dantley. The 39 points marked a career-high for George, too.

It looks like the Detroit Pistons might not be looking to make a blockbuster trade this season amid their recent surge up the Eastern Conference, which puts a bit of a damper on any discussions centering around the Utah Jazz and Lauri Markkanen despite lingering buzz.
