Utah State men’s basketball team. Photo by Robert K. Scott LOGAN – It was a night of new career-highs in the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum as both Max Shulga and Trevin Dorius set new personal bests in points in Utah State’s 80-65 win over Air Force Tuesday evening. Shulga shattered his previous career-best mark of 20 points (set earlier this year at San Diego) by putting up 29. He made four 3-pointers and went 8-of-9 from the free-throw line. “Watching him do that today was not a shock by any means,” Dorius said. “It’s something that we’ve always known Max is capable of. And I hope that every team in the conference knows that that’s what Max is capable of.” Utah State head coach Ryan Odom said Shulga has been working a lot on his shot recently. “He’s been working on it after practice, days off even though we haven’t had many days off,” Odom said. “He’s been able to get in there and refocus himself on his jump shot because he’s a really good shooter, and we know that. He’s had a little bit of a stretch where he’s missed some that, obviously, we all want him to make.

(AP Photo/Michael Conroy) INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Jordan Clarkson and Lauri Markkanen each scored 29 points and the Utah Jazz beat the Indiana Pacers 123-117 on Monday night. Clarkson hit a 3-pointer for a 115-110 lead with 2:03 remaining, and added a 13-foot baseline jumper to extend the lead to 117-113 in the final minute. “Jordan was in the zone tonight,” Jazz coach Will Hardy said. “I wish I could take credit for any of that. We just try to make sure in those moments when he has that going that we’re executing from a spacing standpoint as a team, making sure we give him enough space to operate when he gets in those grooves. He’s incredibly capable of getting as hot as anybody in the league.” Clarkson scored 22 in the second half and finished with six 3-pointers. “I know when my shots are there, what shots I can get to in a game, and I’m very confident that I’ll make those,” Clarkson said. “At the end of the game, (coach) called
