According to Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune, Utah Jazz forward
Lauri Markkanen (conditioning) is unavailable for Friday's matchup with the Denver Nuggets. The 27-year-old will miss his sixth consecutive contest for conditioning purposes.
Kyle Filipowski,
Cody Williams, and
Brice Sensabaugh will continue to have extra fantasy value with Markkanen sidelined this evening. Markkanen's next chance to suit up is Monday against the Charlotte Hornets.

Utah Jazz forward
Lauri Markkanen (conditioning) will not be available on Thursday against the Houston Rockets. He has recently missed time due to an illness and is now working on his conditioning to return to game shape. Markkanen will be out for a fifth consecutive game.
Kyle Filipowski,
Cody Williams, and
Brice Sensabaugh will continue to have extra fantasy value on Thursday night. The former two have recently been part of the starting unit, although Williams has struggled to make a positive impact, shooting 34.1 percent from the field this month.

Utah Jazz forward
Lauri Markkanen (illness) will miss additional time and has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 2023 All-Star will sit out a fourth consecutive game. It's the second straight game he will miss due to an illness. Utah has no interest in winning and will continue to give opportunities to younger players for the remainder of the season. Markkanen's absence opens the door for
Kyle Filipowski,
Brice Sensabaugh, and
Kenyon Martin Jr. to take on larger roles in the rotation. Filipowski stands out as the best fantasy option, as he has joined the starting unit, where he averages 13.8 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 2.6 assists.
