The second-year big man out of Duke turned in a stellar performance for the Utah Jazz against the Charlotte Hornets. Filipowski took over the starring role with Ace Bailey out due to a hip flexor. Filipowski totaled 32 points, six rebounds and five assists in the defeat to Kon Knueppel and the Hornets.

Utah Jazz big man Kyle Filipowski exploded for 35 points on Monday against the San Antonio Spurs. The No. 32 pick of the 2024 NBA draft shot 11-for-19, including 5-for-8 from deep.

But instead, it was Riley Minix who called game on the other end. Minix caught an inbounds pass and hit a fadeaway contested bucket from the short corner to lift the Spurs to the win — which sparked a huge celebration on the floor in Las Vegas.

The Utah Jazz fell to 0-2 in the NBA Summer League on Sunday night, but they still received some solid individual performances.
