Washington Wizards vs Utah Jazz - Full Game Highlights | December 22, 2022 | 2022-23 NBA Season
DECEMBER 23, 2022 • YOUTUBE
Collin Sexton - Active Thursday Sexton (hamstring) will play in Thursday's game against the Wizards.
Impact Sexton's streak of seven consecutive absences will come to an end Friday, as the 23-year-old will be available for the game. Although he has been a strong fantasy contributor this season, he will likely move back to the second unit and be under some sort of minutes restriction. In 17 appearances off the bench, Sexton has averaged 12.7 points in 21.1 minutes per game.

Collin Sexton - Full-go in practice Thursday Sexton (hamstring) was a full participant in Thursday's shootaround, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Impact Sexton is still questionable to play in Thursday's matchup with the Wizards with a right hamstring strain. The former Cavalier's practice participation is a good sign of his availability, especially considering he was already upgraded from out to questionable.

Collin Sexton - Gets upgrade to questionable Sexton (hamstring) is considered questionable for Thursday's game versus the Wizards.
Impact Given that Sexton was listed out on the initial injury report since suffering the hamstring strain, an inclusion as questionable likely signals a return is near. The team should provide additional info on his status at some point on game day, but Sexton should slide into a sizeable role again if given the green light without restrictions.
DECEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Kelly Olynyk - Ruled out for Thursday Olynyk (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Wizards.
Impact Olynyk will miss a third straight game due to a left ankle sprain. Walker Kessler is expected to start at center again.
DECEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Micah Potter - Makes rare appearance for NBA team Potter played three minutes and recorded one assist and no other statistics in Tuesday's 126-111 win over the Pistons.
Impact With Kelly Olynyk (ankle) inactive for both ends of the Jazz's back-to-back set to begin the week, Utah recalled Potter from the G League's Salt Lake City Stars to provide added depth in the frontcourt. Though Potter's number wasn't called in Monday's 23-point loss to the Cavaliers, he got some garbage-time run Tuesday when the Jazz were on the right side of a blowout. Look for Potter to rejoin the Stars in the near future if Olynyk's injury doesn't prove to be a long-term concern.

Talen Horton-Tucker - Only three minutes Tuesday Horton-Tucker closed with one assist over three minutes during Tuesday's 126-111 victory over the Pistons.
Impact Horton-Tucker continues to be one of the more disappointing players thus far this season, logging a season-low three minutes Tuesday. Despite coming into what many saw as a favorable situation, his role has actually reduced when compared to previous years. Currently outside the top 300 in standard formats, even those in deeper leagues would be better off targeting a player with more intrigue given Horton-Tucker's current role.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey scores career-high 30 points in 126-111 loss to Jazz Jaden Ivey scored a career-high 30 points, four rebounds and five assists in the Pistons' 126-111 loss to the Jazz at Little Caesars Arena.

Jarred Vanderbilt - Much-needed double-double in win Vanderbilt closed with 18 points (7-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 13 rebounds, six assists and two steals over 32 minutes during Tuesday's 126-111 win over Detroit.
Impact Vanderbilt finally got back on track in the win, delivering arguably his best line of the season. Despite starting for the majority of the season, his playing time has hovered at around 25 minutes per night. He has been a top-100 asset thus far, although his value is heavily weighted toward rebounds, steals and field goal percentage. While he remains a must-roster player across most formats, let's see he can springboard off this performance.

Markkanen scores 38 to lead Jazz past Pistons 126-111

Lauri Markkanen scored 38 points, including a career-high nine 3-pointers, and the Utah Jazz defeated the Detroit Pistons 126-111
DECEMBER 21, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Lauri Markkanen - Lands career-high nine triples Markkanen notched 38 points (13-20 FG, 9-13 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 126-111 victory over Detroit.
Impact Markkanen was a man on a mission Tuesday, matching his career high with 38 points, including nine triples. His breakout season continues, logging career-high numbers across the board. The Jazz have been arguably the most surprising team thus far, currently sitting at eighth place in the Western Conference with a 18-16 record. Markkanen has been leading from the front and should continue chugging along at top-30 pace for the rest of the season.

Collin Sexton - Sidelined again Tuesday Sexton (hamstring) will miss Tuesday's game versus the Pistons.
Impact Sexton hasn't appeared in a game since Dec. 7, and that trend will continue Tuesday, marking his seventh consecutive absence. Sexton's next opportunity to rejoin the action arrives Thursday versus the Wizards. Nickeil Alexander-Walker should continue to handle a larger role in Sexton's absence.

Johnny Juzang - Makes return in G League Juzang (wrist) played 21 minutes for the G League's Salt Lake City Stars in Monday's 109-104 loss to the Capital City Go-Go, finishing with 19 points (7-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), fi...
Impact Juzang's 21-minute appearance with Salt Lake City marked the two-way player's first at either the NBA or G League level since Nov. 18, as the rookie had been sidelined for a month with a Grade 3 sprain of his right wrist. The 6-foot-6 wing isn't expected to be part of the NBA rotation at any point this season and should continue to receive most of his opportunities in the G League.
DECEMBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Kelly Olynyk - Out Tuesday Olynyk (ankle) is out Tuesday against the Pistons, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.
Impact A sprained left ankle will keep Olynyk out for a second straight game. Walker Kessler is expected to start at center again.

Walker Kessler - Two rejections in spot start Kessler posted 11 points (5-5 FG, 1-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal across 25 minutes during Monday's 122-99 loss to Cleveland.
Impact With Kelly Olynyk (ankle) in street clothes, Kessler got the start at center and put together a well-rounded line in the box score. The 22nd overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft has made three starts in nine December contests while seeing his role grow in the Utah frontcourt, averaging 10.1 points, 8.8 boards and 2.4 blocks in 22.1 minutes a game on the month while shooting an absurd 81.3 percent from the floor.
DECEMBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jordan Clarkson - Drops 23 against Cavs Clarkson ended with 23 points (8-21 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and one steal over 32 minutes during Monday's 122-99 loss to Cleveland.
Impact The long-time bench star has gotten the start in all 32 games he's played this season, and as a result Clarkson is on pace to set new career highs in points and assists. He's scored in double digits in nine straight games, averaging 22.8 points, 3.4 assists, 3.1 boards and 2.6 threes over that stretch.
