Top Plays From The First Half Of The Season
By Cody Powers
7. Richard Jefferson POSTERIZES Jonas Valanciunas
Like I mentioned in RJ’s last highlight, he has proved a lot of people wrong this season, showing that he can still play. Early in the season with Trey and Marvin out, the Jazz struggled, and struggled badly. Especially in their road contest against the Toronto Raptors. Late in the 2nd quarter, the Jazz found themselves down 29 points with 2:25 left to go in the half. RJ once again was trying to make a statement to this young team that he wasn’t going to lie down. He drove baseline once again to rise up and throw down the monster dunk over Jonas Valanciunas. The Jazz still ended up losing the game big, but RJ has been impressive this season in spurts.
