Rotoworld Player News

Jusuf Nurkić

UTA Center #30

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Jusuf Nurkić (rest) has been ruled out against the Pacers on Tuesday.

Nurkić will miss Tuesday’s game against a fellow lottery team. In his most recent absence, Kyle Filipowski started in his place and should return to playing that role in this game. He had 14 points and 12 rebounds in 29 minutes in that game, making Filipowski worth streaming.
Keyonte George

UTA Guard #3

Keyonte George (ankle) has been ruled out against the Pacers on Tuesday.

George will miss a second straight game, which means Isaiah Collier will start at point guard, while Walter Clayton Jr. fills out the reserve minutes. Collier had 19 points, seven assists and two steals in 30 minutes in Utah’s last game and is a worthy streamer as long as George remains out.
Jusuf Nurkić

UTA Center #30

Jusuf Nurkić had 11 points (3-of-11 FGs, 4-of-7 FTs), 13 rebounds, one assist, one steal, three blocks and one three-pointer in Sunday’s loss to the Raptors.

Nurkić sat out Friday’s loss to the Nets with an illness, but was back on the court Sunday. The 31-year-old center saw his streak of three triple-doubles in a row end in Wednesday’s loss to the Warriors, but bounced back with a double-double against the Raptors Sunday. He’s provided fifth-round per game value over the last two weeks. While his fantasy value appears solid, Nurkić is one that could lose value on the Jazz once silly season begins and the team starts looking at giving younger players more playing time.
Lauri Markkanen

UTA Forward-Center #23

Lauri Markkanen had 27 points (9-of-23 FGs, 7-of-7 FTs), 11 rebounds, two assists, two steals, one block and two three-pointers in Sunday’s loss to the Raptors.

Markkanen’s 27 points were a game-high, but it wasn’t enough to lead the Jazz to a win Sunday against the Raptors. The 28-year-old power forward returned from a rest day Friday, but wasn’t very efficient with his 27 points coming on 23 field goal attempts, which included a 2-of-9 showing from behind the three-point line. Markkanen has provided second-round value over the last two weeks. The Jazz have three games in Week 16, starting with a matchup against the Pacers on Tuesday.
Kevin Love

UTA Forward-Center #42

Kevin Love (illness) is available for Sunday’s game against the Raptors.

Love missed the last two games with an illness, but the 37-year-old power forward is available for Sunday’s matchup with the Raptors. He was initially listed as probable, so his availability isn’t a surprise. With Jusuf Nurkić also active, Love doesn’t have much of a fantasy ceiling as the Jazz close out Week 15.
Jusuf Nurkić

UTA Center #30

Jusuf Nurkić (illness) is available for Sunday’s game against the Raptors.

Nurkić is back after sitting out Friday’s loss to the Nets. His return will push Kyle Filipowski to the bench, eliminating most of the third-year center’s short-term fantasy appeal. However, because of his silly season potential, Filipowski is worth holding onto in deeper leagues.
Kevin Love

UTA Forward-Center #42

Kevin Love (illness) is probable for Sunday’s game against the Raptors.

Love is on track to return after a two-game absence, providing the Jazz with additional frontcourt depth. However, with starting center Jusuf Nurkić (illness) also being upgraded to probable, Love has a limited fantasy ceiling for Utah’s final game of Week 15.
Jusuf Nurkić

UTA Center #30

Jusuf Nurkić (illness) is probable for Sunday’s game against the Raptors.

Initially questionable after sitting out Friday’s loss to the Nets, Nurkić is on track to play Sunday evening. His return would push Kyle Filipowski to the bench, limiting the young 7-footer’s playing time. Those who are rostering Filipowski should hold onto him, as he should be a more valuable option after the trade deadline.
Keyonte George

UTA Guard #3

Keyonte George (ankle) is out for Sunday’s game against the Raptors.

George will miss Sunday’s game after spraining his left ankle during the fourth quarter of Friday’s loss to the Nets. While Isaiah Collier is the most likely replacement in the starting lineup, rookie Walter Clayton’s playing time should increase. Collier is the superior streaming option of the two.
Jusuf Nurkić

UTA Center #30

Jusuf Nurkić (illness) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Raptors.

Nurkić was held out of Friday’s loss to the Nets, with Kyle Filipowski replacing him in the starting lineup. Filipowski will retain that role if Utah’s starting center can’t play in Toronto.
