B+. . SG/SF. Utah Jazz. JOE INGLES

Overall GPA: 3.00 (B)

At long last.

All season long I had been calling for Ingles to get somewhere between six and eight three-point attempts per game. Over the current seven-game stretch, Ingles is averaging over six attempts per night. Utah is 5-2 during that stretch.

Coincidence?

Ingles shot a season-high 49 percent from the field in January to go along with a smooth 45 percent from three. If Ingles can keep his attempts to above six per game and maintain a 40-plus percent percentage from downtown, that Jazz will have a legitimate shot at chasing the West’s eighth seed.

Can’t forget about this slick game-tying play in Detroit that started off Utah’s current three-game winning streak…

Great play by Coach Snyder and even better execution by Rubio and Ingles.
