Welcome back, Mike Conley.
Amidst one of the worst shooting struggles he's experienced since joining Utah in 2019, Conley and head coach Quin Snyder insisted that the point guard had played very well of late — the ball just wasn't going in the hoop.
That all changed on Monday night against the defending champion Milwaukee Bucks.
Averaging a season-low 6.6 points per game in March, Conley dropped 29 points on 10-of-13 shooting, including a 6-for-9 performance from three-point territory. He added seven assists and two steals, overcoming arguably the best group of defensive guards in the league to break out of his slump.
