The Z is worth 10 points here, so the best plays all use it. Place it on a double or triple square before spending points elsewhere.
The repeated Z gives you flexibility: use one copy now and hold the other as a hook or crossing letter.
The J (8 points) is where the points are. Park it on a double or triple letter square first, then build around it; the small words can wait until the premium squares are used up.
