Ace Bailey consistently comes out of the gates strong.
6 points and a steal in the first four minutes.
Now he has to sustain the effort and energy through the full 48.

With four starters out, the Jazz lead Washington 37-23 at the end of the first quarter…

Stats don’t count against the Wizards, but I continue to be impressed by the no-nonsense approach of Blake Hinson.
Don’t need to show off, just do what you do well.
Shoot, attack closeouts, or pass. He can make a good living that way.

After one, the @utahjazz lead the @WashWizards 37-23.

I think a lineup with Ace Bailey and Cody Williams as wings/forwards has some real future potential.
Both are playing well here in the first half against the Wizards.

Midway through the second period, the @utahjazz lead the @WashWizards 51-36.

Washington was rumored to be one of Ace Bailey’s preferred destinations in the NBA Draft last summer.
In his first game against the Wizards, Bailey posted 21 points, two rebounds, and two steals…
In the first half.

21 points marks the highest scoring half of his career and he’s only five shy of a new career-high! 🤩♠️ pic.twitter.com/cY5JRmdvYl

New career-high for Ace Bailey.
He’s at 26 points with 7 minutes left in the third quarter.
— Chandler Holt (@CHoltSports) March 6, 2026
A little surprised it’s taken this long to get this game out of Ace Bailey.
He can get really hot from the floor and doesn’t need a lot of space to get his shot off.
This wasn’t terribly uncommon in college.

Washington wins the third quarter 35-26, and Utah’s lead is now just nine heading into the fourth.
Anyone’s game, and it should feel like a win-win for Jazz fans, no matter what the final score is.
