John Collins Ruled Out Versus Denver

Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (knee) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Nuggets. The veteran was initially labeled as questionable because of a knee contusion. Unfortunately, he was downgraded to out. The Jazz will be down some size versus Nikola Jokic, with Lauri Markkanen (personal) and Kyle Filipowski (leg) already ruled out. As a […]

John Collins Listed As Questionable Wednesday

Utah Jazz forward John Collins (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's contest with the Denver Nuggets due to a knee contusion. With Lauri Markkanen (personal) and Kyle Filipowski (leg) already ruled out, the Jazz could be quite shorthanded if the 27-year-old can't play. However, if he can give it a go, Collins could have significant fantasy value as he […]

Kyle Filipowski Out Again Versus Denver

The Utah Jazz will be without forward/center Kyle Filipowski (leg) for a third straight game due to lower left-leg inflammation. In addition to Filipowski, the Jazz will also be without the services of Lauri Markkanen and possibly John Collins (knee), who is listed as questionable. With the 21-year-old Filipowski sidelined, a player like Drew Eubanks could see […]

Lauri Markkanen Ruled Out Wednesday

The Utah Jazz announced that forward Lauri Markkanen (personal) will not play against the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday for personal reasons. On Tuesday against the Spurs, the 27-year-old suffered a contusion on his left knee, forcing him to exit the contest early. However, the Jazz injury report shows no indication that he is sitting because […]

Kyle Filipowski Sits Out Second Consecutive Game

Utah Jazz forward/center Kyle Filipowski (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against San Antonio. He sprained his right ankle last week against the Spurs, and it's unclear when Utah will have Filipowski in the lineup again. Drew Eubanks benefits from Filipowski's absence but is not a good fantasy asset. John Collins and Walker […]

Jordan Clarkson Back On The Shelf Tuesday

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (foot) will exit the lineup on Tuesday versus San Antonio. He returned from a one-game absence on Saturday versus New York but struggled in the contest and will get at least one night off again. Clarkson was limited to only four points on 2-for-9 shooting against the Knicks. Johnny Juzang, […]

Kyle Filipowski To Miss Saturday's Game

Utah Jazz forward/center Kyle Filipowski (ankle) has been listed as out for Saturday's meeting with the Knicks. The rookie big man sprained his right ankle against San Antonio on Thursday.

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (foot) might be absent for a second consecutive game on Saturday against the Knicks. The team considers him questionable for the matchup.

Jordan Clarkson Sits Out Thursday's Game

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (foot) will not play against San Antonio on Thursday. He's battling a foot problem and will miss his third game of the season.

Walker Kessler Still Missing For Jazz

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (hip) will remain sidelined for Thursday's matchup against San Antonio. He has been ruled out for a sixth consecutive game due to right hip bursitis.

Jordan Clarkson Questionable To Face Spurs

Clarkson has played in seven consecutive games, putting in some impressive performances. The veteran scorer is averaging 18.0 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 3.9 assists for the month. […]

Dallas Mavericks forward Lauri Markkanen (eye) has been upgraded to active for Saturday night's matchup against the San Antonio Spurs. Markkanen has an eye contusion but will be able to play through it. The 27-year-old has been producing below his norms this season, shooting just 39.8% from the floor compared to his career average of […]

Walker Kessler Still Out On Saturday

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (hip) remains out for Saturday's contest against the Sacramento Kings. The 23-year-old has averaged only 9.2 points this season, which isn't surprising. However, category managers have at least appreciated his career-high 10.7 rebounds and 2.8 blocks per contest. Hopefully, Kessler's absence won't extend beyond three games. But in the meantime, […]

Lauri Markkanen In Danger Of Missing Another Game

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (eye) is questionable for Saturday's showdown with the Sacramento Kings. The veteran hasn't met expectations during the 2024-25 campaign, averaging 16.3 points, considerably less than last season. He's also already missed three games, so another absence would be frustrating for fantasy managers. With that in mind, if the eye contusion […]

Walker Kessler Won't Play On Tuesday

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (hip) won't play in Tuesday's game versus the Phoenix Suns. He's dealing with hip soreness, so he'll miss his first game of the 2024-25 campaign. The 23-year-old has averaged only 9.2 points this season. However, he's logged career-highs in rebounds (10.7) and blocks (2.8). Without him, John Collins and Drew […]
