Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Keyonte George, Isaiah Collier, Cody Williams, Ace Bailey and Kyle Filipowski will start Wednesday’s game against the Bulls.

Lauri Markkanenis unavailable for the Jazz, while Jusuf Nurkić is available off the bench. The good news is that Ace Bailey is back in the starting lineup for the first time since December 26. Also joining the lineup are Collier and Filipowski. Get used to the Jazz rolling out lineups like this the rest of the way, as their 2026 first-round pick is top-8 protected (Oklahoma City gets it otherwise).
Lauri Markkanen

UTA Forward-Center #23

Lauri Markkanen (illness) is doubtful for Wednesday’s matchup with the Bulls.

Markkanen is a late addition to the injury report and unlikely to take the court against Chicago. In his absence, Kyle Filipowski should see a boosted role, making him a worthwhile streamer.
Kevin Love

UTA Forward-Center #42

Kevin Love (rest) has been ruled out against the Bulls on Wednesday.

Love will sit out the first leg of this back-to-back, which likely is to make sure he’s available against Dallas on Thursday. That likely means they’ll rest some players that play on Wednesday, such as Jusuf Nurkić. Kyle Filipowski should see extra minutes in both games.
Jusuf Nurkić

UTA Center #30

Jusuf Nurkić had 11 points (4-of-9 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), 17 rebounds, three assists, three steals, two blocks and one three-pointer in the win over the Cavaliers on Monday.

Nurkić had a toe injury that cost him two games, including Saturday’s historic 55-point loss to the Hornets. The 31-year-old center returned Monday night and continued his dominance on the glass, grabbing 17 rebounds. Nurkić has 44 rebounds over his last three games now. He’s provided 12th-round per game value this season and first-round per game value over the last two weeks.
Lauri Markkanen

UTA Forward-Center #23

Lauri Markkanen had 28 points (8-of-16 FGs, 9-of-12 FTs), 12 rebounds, two assists, one steal, one block and three three-pointers in Monday’s win over the Cavaliers.

Markkanen returned after getting the night off for rest on Saturday, when the Jazz lost by 55 to the Hornets. The 28-year-old power forward had at least 28 points for the fourth time in his last five games and at least 12 rebounds for the second time in his last three games. Markkanen has been one of the best players in fantasy basketball this season, providing first-round per game value. He has a great matchup coming up against the Bulls Wednesday.
Keyonte George

UTA Guard #3

Keyonte George had 32 points (8-of-16 FGs, 12-of-12 FTs), five rebounds, nine assists, one steal and four three-pointers in the Jazz’ 123-112 victory over the Cavaliers on Monday.

In case you didn’t already know, George is one of the most improved players in the league this year. That was on full display Monday against the Cavaliers as he torched Cleveland for 32 points and nine assists. It’s his 10th game this season with at least 30 points, becoming the first Jazz player with double-digit games with at least 30 points since Donovan Mitchell in 2022. George has provided third-round per game value in his breakout season. The Jazz take on the Bulls Wednesday in the first game of a back-to-back.
Jusuf Nurkić

UTA Center #30

Keyonte George, Svi Mykhailiuk, Cody Williams, Lauri Markkanen and Jusuf Nurkić will start Monday’s game against the Cavaliers.

Markkanen and Nurkić are back after not being available for Saturday’s 55-point loss to the Hornets, pushing Taylor Hendricks and Kevin Love to the bench. The other change is Mykhailiuk, who will start despite Brice Sensabaugh being available.
Ace Bailey

UTA Forward #19

Ace Bailey (hip) is available for Monday’s matchup with the Cavaliers.

Bailey has played in only one of Utah’s last eight games, but he’ll be available to face Cleveland. It’s unclear if he’ll face any restrictions, but Bailey’s return should diminish Cody Williams’ role.
Jusuf Nurkić

UTA Center #30

Jusuf Nurkić (toe) is available for Monday’s matchup with the Cavaliers.

Nurkić will return to Utah’s lineup following a two-game absence, which means Kevin Love should shift back to the bench. Love may still earn some rotation minutes, as Cleveland utilizes a double-big lineup with Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley.
Jusuf Nurkić

UTA Center #30

Jusuf Nurkić (toe) is probable for Monday’s game against the Cavaliers.

Nurkić has missed Utah’s last two games, allowing Kevin Love to fill the void at center. Love would get another start if the 7-footer can’t play, but he may remain in the rotation regardless, given the opponent and his absence from the initial injury report.
