Collin Sexton To Rest On Saturday

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (rest) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The 24-year-old returned to the rotation on Friday, so it's not shocking to see him sitting out the second leg of the back-to-back set. Veteran guard Mike Conley (rest) will return to the rotation and help fill the […]

Lauri Markkanen Ruled Out Against 76ers

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hip) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The 25-year-old will sit out the second leg of this back-to-back set due to a left hip contusion. His absence should mean that Jarred Vanderbilt moves into the starting five on Saturday. He began the season as a […]

What's up, RotoBallers! We're now halfway through the NBA season and creeping up on All-Star Weekend festivities. Hopefully, all of your teams are still firmly in contention for the fantasy league championship. The Drop List returns for another week, and it might not be kind to some of your rosters. Each week, I'll take a […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/14/23): NBA DFS Lineups

We have a smaller slate to work with in the NBA tonight, which is what we typically see on weekends. All six matchups are viable to target in DFS contests tonight, but we have a situation where the Pacers will be extremely shorthanded, and DraftKings didn't get around to pricing the rotational players up yet. […]

Mike Conley Rested On Friday

Utah Jazz point guard Mike Conley will be rested for Friday's clash with Orlando. It's the first leg of a back-to-back for the team and Utah is keeping the veteran floor general fresh for Saturday's matchup against Philadelphia. Conley has had an up-and-down ride in Utah this season but is averaging a career-high 7.5 assists, […]

Collin Sexton Returns With A Minutes Limit

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (hamstring) will make a return to the lineup Friday versus Orlando but will have a minutes restriction. He has missed the past five games with a right hamstring injury. Sexton's debut campaign in Salt Lake City hasn't gone too well, with him stuck in a reserve role and averaging only […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (01/13/22): NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Friday, RotoBallers! I hope you all had an excellent week to this point, and a great weekend is forthcoming! We have a plentiful NBA slate tonight, with a bunch of games on the board and some very fun matchups to look forward to. I'm a big fan of Friday slates since Thursday slates are […]

Kelly Olynyk To Miss At Least One Week

Utah Jazz forward Kelly Olynyk (ankle) will miss at least one week of action. The 31-year-old missed Tuesday's game and it appears this won't be a one-game absence. The organization is going to shut him down for a week while Olynyk recovers from his sprained left ankle. Walker Kessler should continue to start, while Olynyk […]

Jordan Clarkson Leads Jazz With 32 Points In Win

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson led the way in scoring during a 116-114 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday. The 30-year-old posted 32 points, six rebounds, and four assists while shooting 11-for-19 overall and 5-for-11 from deep. Clarkson remains a great value if he was selected late in the fantasy draft. He's currently ranked […]

Malik Beasley Gets The Starting Nod On Tuesday

Utah Jazz guard Malik Beasley will move into the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This move isn't injury related, so fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned. Head coach Will Hardy is playing matchups, so Jarred Vanderbilt will come off the bench for at least this game. Beasley is worth a look as […]

Kelly Olynyk Likely To Miss Multiple Games

Utah Jazz forward Kelly Olynyk (ankle) won't suit up for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. In fact, it sounds like Olynyk is likely to miss more than one game due to his sprained left ankle. Head coach Will Hardy mentioned that Olynyk's injury is more significant than a day-to-day type of issue. That being […]

Collin Sexton To Remain Sidelined On Tuesday Versus Cleveland

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (hamstring) will miss another game due to injury maintenance on his right hamstring. Tuesday marks his fifth consecutive game missed due to the hamstring issue and there doesn't seem to be a firm timetable for his return. While he's been out, Malik Beasley, Ochai Agbaji, and Nickeil Alexander-Walker have all […]

Kelly Olynyk Sidelined With Ankle Issue On Tuesday Night

Utah Jazz forward Kelly Olynyk (ankle) is listed as out against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday night. The 31-year-old was able to play almost 30 minutes in the team's last contest but picked up an ankle sprain in the process. Walker Kessler, if not rostered already, would be the top streaming option out of this […]

Talen Horton-Tucker Won't Play Sunday

Utah Jazz guard Talen Horton-Tucker (ankle) won't suit up for Sunday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. It's the second night of a back-to-back set, so the Jazz have decided to rest their young guard. His absence should open up more playing time for Malik Beasley, Ochai Agbaji and Nickeil Alexander-Walker. On Saturday, Agbaji dropped 19 […]

Collin Sexton To Miss Thursday's Game

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (hamstring) is listed as out for Thursday's game against the Houston Rockets. Sexton played in five straight games before sitting out of Tuesday's loss to the Sacramento Kings.
