Hassan Whiteside (foot) will miss his fourth straight game on Thursday when the team faces the Los Angeles Lakers. Whiteside is currently hampered by a right foot sprain. The Jazz signed
Greg Monroe to a 10-day contract to help fill in for the injured Whiteside. Monroe logged 10 minutes in his Jazz debut on Tuesday and came up with four points and two boards. Meanwhile,
Rudy Gobert logged 38 minutes on Tuesday and racked up nine points, 16 boards and three blocks. Based on the Monroe signing, it seems likely that Whiteside is still about a week or so away from returning.

Hassan Whiteside (foot) has been listed as questionable to take the floor for Friday's game vs. Charlotte due to a sprained right foot. Whiteside's fantasy appeal is directly tied to that of
Rudy Gobert, as the 32-year-old currently doesn't receive a high enough minutes share to justify a roster spot in season-long or DFS contests. If Whiteside is ultimately held out, Gobert could receive a handful of additional minutes, while
Eric Paschall is an option to serve as a small ball center. Per DraftKings' scoring, the Hornets are yielding the second-most DFS points on a nightly basis to opposing centers.

Hassan Whiteside (illness) is available for Sunday's clash against the Knicks. The veteran didn't suit up during Utah's previous outing against the Los Angeles Clippers because of a non-COVID-19 related sickness. However, Whiteside will be back in the support role behind
Rudy Gobert, and while he doesn't play a ton, he still has one of the highest fantasy point-per-minute averages this season, so he should remain on the radar.

Hassan Whiteside (illness) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He is sitting this one out due to a non-COVID related illness. That's not great news with
Udoka Azubuike (ankle) sidelined as well. That means,
Eric Paschall and possibly
Rudy Gay will see more playing time. However, neither have enough upside to warrant streaming in most fantasy formats.
