Talen Horton-Tucker - Remains wildly inconsistent Horton-Tucker ended Thursday's 115-113 loss to the Magic with 15 points (7-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds, eight assists, one block and three steals in 31 minutes.
Impact Horton-Tucker ended just two assists away from reaching his first double-double and tied his season-high mark in dimes. He also scored in double digits after delivering a subpar display in his previous outing against the Grizzlies, where he produced just nine points across 23 minutes on Nov. 1. Horton-Tucker has mixed double-digit and single-digit scoring performances, and while he has proven to be a player who can fill the stat sheet on a given night, he needs to be more consistent as a scoring weapon in order to maximize his fantasy upside.

Lauri Markkanen - Goes for 22 points Thursday Markkanen posted 22 points (9-17 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 0-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and two steals over 33 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 loss to Orlando.
Impact Markkanen couldn't reach his fifth double-double of the season, but at least he surpassed the 20-point mark for the third time. Markkanen has scored 19 or more points in each of his first six games of the campaign, and while the season is still very young, he already looks like one of the most consistent frontcourt players in the league. Given his massive role on offense for the Jazz, he should keep producing steady numbers while flirting with double-doubles every time he steps on the court.

John Collins - Records double-double in loss Collins finished Thursday's 115-113 loss to the Magic with 20 points (7-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 10 rebounds and one block over 33 minutes.
Impact Collins is enjoying an excellent start to the season, and outside of recording his fourth double-double through six games, he also posted a season-high mark in points. Collins is showing the upside he couldn't live up to as a member of the Hawks, and his fantasy upside has risen considerably compared to 12 months ago. He looks like a pivotal pice of the Jazz's offensive scheme in the frontcourt alongside Lauri Markkanen.

Walker Kessler - Expected to play against Orlando Kessler is probable for Thursday's game versus the Magic due to left elbow soreness, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Impact Kessler has yet to miss a game so far this season and is expected to play on the second leg of Utah's back-to-back Thursday. The second-year center is averaging 8.6 points, 6.8 rebounds and 1.0 blocks in 22.8 minutes across his first five appearances this season.

Omer Yurtseven - Plays seven minutes off bench Yurtseven chipped in three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist in seven minutes during Wednesday's 133-109 victory over the Grizzlies.
Impact Yurtseven has had minimal playing time early this season but saw a handful of minutes during Wednesday's blowout victory. He made just nine appearances for the Heat last year while dealing with injuries and hasn't had a fantasy-relevant role with his new club.
NOVEMBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Simone Fontecchio - Scores five off bench Fontecchio closed Wednesday's 133-109 win over Memphis with five points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), one rebound and one assist in eight minutes.
Impact Fontecchio hasn't been a consistent part of Utah's rotation earky this year, but he saw some playing time during Wednesday's blowout win. As long as the Jazz remain relatively healthy this season, Fontecchio is unlikely to have much fantasy relevance.
NOVEMBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Kelly Olynyk - Approaches double-double off bench Olynyk produced 14 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and one steal across 26 minutes during Wednesday's 133-109 victory over the Grizzlies.
Impact Olynyk saw an uptick in playing time during Wednesday's blowout win and scored in double figures for the second time this year while finishing two rebounds shy of a double-double. Despite coming off the bench over his first five appearances of the year, he's been a fairly well-rounded contributor, averaging 9.2 points, 5.6 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.2 steals in 20.6 minutes per game.

Jordan Clarkson - Turns in excellent night Clarkson chipped in 20 points (8-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists and two steals over 26 minutes during Wednesday's 133-109 win over the Grizzlies.
Impact Clarkson bounced back after a concerning two-game stretch where he failed to reach double-digits. Granted, the matchups were against two potential title contenders in Denver and Phoenix, but he put a solid number up against another team with a lot of potential Wednesday. Clarkson is now averaging 13.6 points, 5.0 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.8 three-pointers in 29.4 minutes per contest through Utah's first five games.

Lauri Markkanen - Logs fourth double-double of season Markkanen contributed 19 points (6-11 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and one steal across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 133-109 victory over the Grizzlies.
Impact Markkanen has been relentless to begin the season and has had his way against the likes of Nikola Jokic, Kevin Durant and Kawhi Leonard to begin the year. No one has cracked the formula to shut Markkanen down, and he is single-handedly thrusting the Jazz back into relevancy in the Western Conference.

Collin Sexton - Thrives as off-guard Sexton ended with 23 points (8-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and six assists across 22 minutes during Wednesday's 133-109 win over Memphis.
Impact The Jazz may have found the winning combination by taking Sexton out of his usual role as a second-unit floor general. Sexton is used to bringing the ball down the court, but he looked superb by leaving the point guard duties to Jordan Clarkson. The blowout of Memphis was quite decisive, and it would not surprise me to see Clarkson and Sexton aligned together in a starting lineup soon.
