On May 25, Beijing time, the NBA officially announced that the 2020-21 regular season Jazz player Clarkson was elected the best sixth person of the season, which was the first time in his career that he won the best sixth person.
Jordan Clarkson, a dual U.S./Filipino national, entered the NBA through the draft in 2014 as a point guard, playing for the Lakers, Cavaliers and Jazz, and was named to the All-Rookie First Team in his rookie season. In August 2018, Jordan Clarkson served as the flag bearer for the opening ceremony of the Philippine delegation to the Jakarta Asian Games, representing the Philippines in basketball games.
In the regular season, Clarkson played in 68 games, including 67 as a substitute, averaging 26.7 minutes per game and averaging 18.4 points, 4 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.15 blocks. This statistic allowed him to reach the top of the best sixth person, Clarkson has Filipino citizenship and is a major threat to the status of Chinese basketball in the Asian region. Today' Asian basketball continues to rise, the tough Iranian team, the Japanese team with NBA players, and in the near future philippine team, their rise is not good for the Chinese team.
Clarkson should now be called "Asia's first point guard", although he is a planning player, but he will represent the Philippines this is no doubt, so make yourself stronger to beat the opponent, the Chinese team cheers!
