OCTOBER 31, 2022 • COMMERCIALAPPEAL.COM
Walker Kessler - Ruled out Monday Kessler (illness) will not take the court against the Grizzlies on Monday.
Impact Kessler will miss his third consecutive game due to a non-COVID illness despite taking part in shootaround Monday morning. His absence could spell more minutes for Kelly Olynyk and Jarred Vanderbilt, while Udoka Azubuike is a candidate to break into the Utah rotation.
OCTOBER 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Leandro Bolmaro - Enters protocols Bolmaro (COVID-19) has entered the NBA's health and safety protocols and will not play Monday against the Grizzlies, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
Impact Bolmaro joins Rudy Gay (COVID-19) and Simone Fontecchio (COVID-19) in the league's health and safety protocols, leaving the Jazz thin at the wing positions. However, Bolmaro is not a mainstay in Utah's rotation, appearing in just two of the team's seven games thus far. If he clears protocols quickly, he could suit up for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks.

Walker Kessler - Participates in shootaround Kessler (illness) participated in Utah's shootaround Monday, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Impact Kessler has missed the last two games due to an illness and is questionable for Monday's matchup against Memphis, but his participation in the team's shootaround is encouraging. However, it's not yet clear whether he'll ultimately be able to suit up for Monday's game.
OCTOBER 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Rudy Gay - Out again Monday Gay (COVID-19) remains out Monday against Memphis.
Impact The veteran will miss a third straight game after initially landing in protocols midway through last week. He'll continue to be monitored on a day-to-day basis ahead of Wednesday's game at Dallas.
OCTOBER 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Simone Fontecchio - Remains in protocols Fontecchio (COVID-19) remains out Monday against Memphis.
Impact Fontecchio will miss a third straight game after entering protocols last week. His next chance to play will come Wednesday at Dallas.

Leandro Bolmaro - Third-year option declined The Jazz informed Bolmaro on Sunday that his third-year option for 2023-24 will be declined, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
Impact Bolmaro was due an estimated $2.59 million in 2023-24, but the Jazz evidently don't see enough developmental upside in the 22-year-old guard to keep him on hand at that modest sum. Among the young talent on the Utah roster, Bolmaro hasn't emerged as much of a priority for the Jazz in the early portion of his first season with the team, as he's logged just 16 minutes in the team's first seven games.
OCTOBER 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Udoka Azubuike - Set for free agency next summer The Jazz informed Azubuike on Sunday that the team won't exercise his $3.92 million team option for 2023-24, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
Impact Azubuike is thus set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer following his third NBA season. The No. 27 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft, Azubuike has played in just 33 career regular-season games, with the big man missing extensive time along the way due to injuries.

Walker Kessler - Questionable Monday Kessler (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Grizzlies, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Impact Kessler has missed Utah's last two games due to an illness, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be available Monday. If he's sidelined again, Udoka Azubuike and Jarred Vanderbilt should see increased playing time.

How are the Utah Jazz a surprising 5-2? By finding a new hero every night The Jazz don't have a star-level player to close games, but their ability to find different players to step up every night has overcome that

Talen Horton-Tucker - Struggles in win Saturday Horton-Tucker posted one point (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and one rebound in 10 minutes during Saturday's 124-123 win over the Grizzlies.
Impact Horton-Tucker saw just 10 minutes off the bench, failing to produce anything close to fantasy value. Outside of a couple of encouraging performances, it's been a rocky start for Horton-Tucker. At this stage, the best case is to view him as a potential streaming candidate if and when he strings together some strong outings.
OCTOBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jarred Vanderbilt - Limited to 23 minutes in win Vanderbilt produced seven points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 23 minutes during Saturday's 124-123 win over the Grizzlies.
Impact Vanderbilt saw modest playing time in the win, as the coaching staff seemingly opted to go in another direction down the stretch. While his production has been more than adequate, his minutes thus far have been wildly inconsistent, ranging from 18 all the way up to 32. His spot in the starting lineup appears assured and the fact he can contribute across multiple categories does mean he should be able to maintain value, even with limited minutes.
OCTOBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Ochai Agbaji - Scores seven points in 17 minutes Agbaji accumulated seven points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-5 FT), four rebounds and one assist across 18 minutes during Saturday's 124-123 win over the Grizzlies.
Impact Agbaji played meaningful minutes for the second straight game, although it did come with Mike Conley (rest) on the sideline. Based on what we saw prior to this, he could struggle to be an every-night part of the rotation, at least to begin the season.
OCTOBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Collin Sexton - Solid night in starting role Sexton contributed 19 points (7-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one block across 32 minutes during Saturday's 124-123 win over Memphis.
Impact Sexton slotted into the starting lineup for the first time this season, replacing Mike Conley, who was given the night off. While Sexton did manage to put up a serviceable line, it does indicate the reason he has been playing limited minutes is due to where he fits in the rotation as opposed to his knee injury. Based on this, it appears as though he is going to play minutes in the teens on most nights, making him a tough player to trust in standard leagues.
