Injured Lauri Markkanen Questionable On MondayUtah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hip) is listed as questionable to play Monday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Markkanen has already missed a game with hip soreness and is in danger of missing another. If Markkanen does sit out Monday, Jarred Vanderbilt and Talen Horton-Tucker should both see increased roles. Jordan Clarkson would also be asked to shoulder the load offensively. Clarkson posted 38 points last game without Markkanen.

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 starter, but has shifted to the second unit as a late. Vanderbilt is already rostered in many fantasy formats, but is worth snagging if available on the waiver wire for Saturday's slate.

Injured Kelly Olynyk To Miss At Least One WeekUtah 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 is out. He has been playing very well lately and should be rostered in most fantasy formats right now. Fantasy managers should double check the waiver wire to make sure Kessler isn't available.

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 said, Walker Kessler is likely to see a handful of starts in the near future. He has been solid this season, so he should be added if he's available on the waiver wire. Kessler is providing 11th-round value in 9-cat formats right now. He should see increased value with Olynyk sidelined, so pick him up if he's available.

Injured Collin Sexton To Remain Sidelined On Tuesday Versus ClevelandUtah 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 seen some added minutes off of the bench. Beasley would likely be the safer streaming option, but the other two could help in deeper leagues.

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 situation. After Kessler, Jarred Vanderbilt will probably see higher usage in the front court as well.

Injured Talen Horton-Tucker Won't Play SundayUtah 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 points with four triples, but he's not exactly a consistent option. Between the three players, Beasley is the more reliable fantasy option.

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. The 24-year-old will miss his second straight game to what the team is calling right hamstring injury maintenance. Malik Beasley will be asked to handle a bulk of the playing time with Nickeil Alexander-Walker getting extended minutes as well. Beasley is likely rostered in most fantasy formats, but should be snagged if available in any right now. Alexander-Walker could be worth streaming as a deep league option until Sexton is back.

Utah Jazz center Kelly Olynyk (ankle) will not play Monday against the San Antonio Spurs. Olynyk continues to be sidelined with an ankle sprain he suffered last week and there have been no reports of his progress yet. Walker Kessler and Jarred Vanderbilt will continue to split the center minutes until Olynyk is back on the court.

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (hamstring) will suit up for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. The 23-year-old will return to action after missing the last seven games due to a hamstring strain. Nickeil Alexander-Walker has been seeing an expanded role, but Sexton is expected to take away those minutes. That being said, Alexander-Walker won't be an appealing streaming option with Sexton healthy. The expectation is that Sexton will be limited during his first game back. Although, it shouldn't take him long to get back to full speed.
