Drew Eubanks News, Rumors, Updates - Utah Jazz

Fails to score in victory Eubanks produced zero points (0-2 FT) and three rebounds across nine minutes during Saturday's 105-94 win over the Nets.

Impact Eubanks underwhelming season continued Saturday, having now scored more than five points only five times in the first 22 games. To this point, he is averaging just 4.3 points and 4.0 rebounds in 13.3 minutes per game, playing as a backup option behind Walker Kessler.

Cleared to play Saturday Eubanks (knee) isn't included on the injury report for Saturday's game against the Mavericks.

Impact Eubanks played just one minute and 30 seconds in Wednesday's 122-103 loss to the Nuggets before leaving early with a bruised left knee, but two days off between games apparently provided sufficient recovery time for him. The Jazz will get Lauri Markkanen (personal) and John Collins (knee) back from one-game absences Saturday but will remain without Kyle Filipowski (lower leg), so Eubanks should be able to stick in the rotation as the primary backup to starting center Walker Kessler.

Won't return Wednesday Eubanks won't return to Wednesday's game against the Nuggets due to a left knee contusion, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact The Jazz don't need another injury in their frontcourt, so losing Eubanks is huge in a game where they're already thin in terms of depth. Brice Sensabaugh should see more minutes in the frontcourt with Eubanks out, and this means Walker Kessler is the only healthy true center the Jazz have in their roster for the reminder of the contest.

NOVEMBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Efficient in 17 minutes Thursday Eubanks logged five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 17 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 win over the Mavericks.

Impact After playing only three minutes in Tuesday's loss to the Suns, Eubanks saw double-digit playing time for the fifth time this season. The big man was efficient Thursday, and he provided a solid spark off the bench. Through eight regular-season appearances, the 27-year-old has averaged 4.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists across 13.1 minutes per game.

NOVEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Plays productive 20 minutes in loss Eubanks registered six points (2-3 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, two blocks and one assist across 20 minutes during Thursday's 106-88 loss to San Antonio.

Impact The 27-year-old produced in his first game hitting the double-digit mark in minutes, due mainly to a depleted frontcourt missing both Taylor Hendricks (lower leg) and Lauri Markkanen (back). With Hendricks out for the season, it would not come as a surprise to see Eubanks play more minutes in the frontcourt behind Markkanen, Walker Kessler, John Collins and Kyle Filipowski.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go against Sacramento Eubanks (illness) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Kings, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.

Impact Eubanks has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday despite being a late addition to the injury report with an illness. With Taylor Hendricks (ankle) out for the season, it is possible Eubanks will receive increased playing time as a bench big in Utah's frontcourt.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Tuesday Eubanks (illness) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Kings.

Impact Eubanks was a late addition to the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Mavericks and was ultimately ruled out. It appears he's feeling better and has a chance to suit up for the second night of Utah's back-to-back set, but even if he's cleared, he's not guaranteed playing time.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Not playing Monday Eubanks (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Mavericks, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact Eubanks popped up on the Jazz's injury report with an illness, which is severe enough for the 27-year-old center to be held out for Monday's contest. His next chance at suiting up will be against the Kings on Tuesday. Eubanks played just five minutes of garbage time during the Jazz's 127-86 loss to the Warriors on Saturday, so his absence won't impact Utah's rotation.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy with illness Eubanks (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Mavericks.

Impact Eubanks has appeared in only one of Utah's two games to open the season, playing a total of six minutes. His status is unlikely to have a big impact on the rotation.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Will join Utah Eubanks and the Jazz agreed to a two-year, $10 million deal Monday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.

Impact With this move, the Jazz have secured more frontcourt depth alongside Walker Kessler, John Collins and Kyle Filipowski. It's hard to imagine Eubanks carving out enough minutes to be relevant in most fantasy leagues, however. With the Suns last season, Eubanks averaged 5.1 points, 4.3 rebounds and 0.8 assists in 15.6 minutes.

JULY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Set to hit free agency Eubanks announced Friday he is declining his $2.6 million player option from the Suns for 2024-25 and will become an unrestricted free agent, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Eubanks will hit free agency after averaging 5.1 points and 4.3 rebounds in 15.6 minutes across 75 appearances, including six starts, for Phoenix in 2023-24. Eubanks will likely continue to operate as a backup center for a different team if he finds a new destination in free agency.

JUNE 21 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared to play Eubanks (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.

Impact Eubanks will shake off a questionable tag and provide frontcourt depth behind Jusuf Nurkic. Over his last 10 appearances (two starts), Eubanks has averaged 3.8 points, 4.9 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 15.9 minutes per game.

APRIL 14 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Sunday Eubanks is questionable for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves due to right ankle soreness, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

Impact Eubanks has started here and there, but for the most part, he's been playing off the bench since Jusuf Nurkic is entrenched as Phoenix's starting center. Eubanks does offer decent depth behind him, and if he's out Sunday, then Thaddeus Young and Bol Bol would be in line for expanded roles off the bench.

APRIL 13 • ROTOWIRE

Retreats to bench Eubanks will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

Impact Eubanks will rejoin the reserves for Wednesday's game due to Jusuf Nurkic being back from a one-game absence. In his last 10 appearances, Eubanks is averaging 4.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.1 blocks.

APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE

Starting against Clippers Eubanks will start Tuesday's game against the Clippers, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Jusuf Nurkic is sidelined with a right ankle sprain, so Eubanks is expected to see the bulk of the center minutes. Coach Frank Vogel also mentioned the possibility of Thaddeus Young and Bol Bol getting a shot at some center minutes as well.

APRIL 10 • ROTOWIRE

Does little as fill-in during win Eubanks chipped in five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 104-97 win over the Nuggets.

Impact Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) was out with an ankle injury, forcing Eubanks into the first unit. The team is thin at the position but got some interior support from Thaddeus Young after Eubanks had a frigid start. Nurkic should be back in time for Friday's game against the Thunder, which will move Eubanks back to the bench.

MARCH 28 • ROTOWIRE

Getting spot start Eubanks will start at center in Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.

Impact With Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) sidelined, Eubanks will be the next-man-up at center. The big man has averaged 4.3 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists across 21.5 minutes in four starts this season.

MARCH 28 • ROTOWIRE

Productive in win Eubanks finished Monday's 117-111 win over the Cavaliers with four points (2-2 FG), six rebounds, one block and one steal across 18 minutes.

Impact Since the All-Star break, Eubanks has averaged 4.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.0 blocks and 0.4 steals in 15.5 minutes. The 27-year-old has been a consistent piece off the bench this season, shooting 62.7 percent from the field. With the Suns' lack of size, expect Eubanks to continue receiving valuable playing time behind Jusuf Nurkic.

MARCH 12 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to second unit Eubanks will come off the bench for Sunday's game against the Lakers.

Impact Eubanks gives way to Jusuf Nurkic (ankle), who will return to action and reclaim his starting role Sunday following a one-game absence. Eubanks is averaging 4.8 points and 4.0 rebounds in 12.8 minutes across his last five games off the bench.

FEBRUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Gets starting nod Eubanks is in the starting lineup for Friday's game versus the Rockets, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Eubanks will replace Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) in the starting five Friday. Eubanks is averaging 2.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steals in 20.3 minutes across his last three starting appearances.
