Lauri Markkanen - Out for remainder of game Markkanen won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Kings due to lower back spasms, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.
Impact Markkanen tallied seven points (3-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 17 minutes before exiting Tuesday's contest early. In Markkanen's absence, Kyle Filipowski, Brice Sensabaugh and John Collins are candidates to receive increased playing time.

Jordan Clarkson - Enters starting five vs. Kings Clarkson will join the starting lineup for Tuesday's matchup against the Kings, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.
Impact Collin Sexton will slide to the bench with Clarkson starting at the two-guard spot. The 32-year-old has come off the bench in each of the club's first three regular-season games, during which he has averaged 13.7 points, 4.3 assists and 3.7 rebounds across 13.7 minutes per game. Clarkson is shooting only 37.8 percent from the field and 20.0 percent from beyond the arc this season.

Collin Sexton - Moves to bench Sexton isn't in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Kings, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.
Impact Jordan Clarkson will replace Sexton in the starting five Tuesday. Sexton should operate as Utah's primary bench option in the backcourt.

Cody Williams - Getting starting nod Williams is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Kings, Ben Anderson of KSLsports reports.
Impact Williams will enter the starting five with Taylor Hendricks (ankle) out for the season. Williams is averaging 2.0 points and 3.7 rebounds in 20.0 minutes across his first three appearances but should receive increased playing time now that he has earned a starting job.
OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE
Taylor Hendricks - Will undergo season ending surgery Hendricks will undergo surgery to repair the fractured right fibula and dislocated ankle on his right leg, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Hendricks' surgery date will be determined within the next 24-48 hours, and this procedure will sideline him for the remainder of the season. The rookie started in all three games thus far and even led the team in steals per game (1.7), but he will spend the rest of the season in recovery.

Johnny Juzang - Suiting up Tuesday Juzang (thumb) is available to play in Tuesday's game against the Kings, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
Impact Juzang is expected to make his 2024-25 debut after missing the club's first three regular-season outings due to a sprained right thumb. The 23-year-old impressed during the preseason, and he should play a role off the bench behind Jordan Clarkson with Isaiah Collier (hamstring) out.
OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE
Drew Eubanks - 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.

Johnny Juzang - Questionable for Tuesday Juzang (thumb) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Kings.
Impact Juzang has yet to play in a regular-season game this season due to a thumb sprain. Even if he's cleared to suit up, he's not guaranteed any playing time.

Drew Eubanks - 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.

Isaiah Collier - Still out Collier (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Kings.
Impact Collier has yet to play this season due to a hamstring strain. He doesn't have a return timetable, but his next chance to suit up will come Thursday against the Spurs.

Taylor Hendricks - Likely done for season Hendricks is expected to miss the remainder of the season after suffering a fractured right fibula and dislocated ankle in Monday's 110-102 loss to the Mavericks, Tim MacMahon of E...
Impact Jazz head coach Will Hardy acknowledged after the game that Hendricks is without an official timeline for a return, but if further tests Tuesday confirm the original diagnosis or reveal additional damage, the second-year forward will be headed for season-ending surgery. Hendricks went down with the injuries with 5:59 remaining in the third quarter, when he fell to the floor on a non-contact play and was stretchered to the locker room. Kyle Filipkowski came off the bench to replace Hendricks, and the Jazz could turn to a committee of Filipowski, John Collins, Drew Eubanks (illness) and Brice Sensabaugh to replace Hendricks' vacated minutes in the frontcourt. Hendricks had started in each of the Jazz's first three games and averaged 4.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.7 steals, 1.3 blocks, 1.0 three-pointers and 0.7 assists in 25.0 minutes while shooting 22.2 percent from the field.

Walker Kessler - Strong two-way output Monday Kessler finished with 12 points (6-11 FG, 0-2 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals over 30 minutes during Monday's 110-102 loss to the Mavericks.
Impact Kessler was limited to just two points in the blowout loss to the Warriors on Oct. 25, but other than that, the big man has been excellent to start the season with two double-doubles in three starts. He remains an impactful player on defense as well, racking up eight blocks and three steals in those three contests.

Collin Sexton - Leads Utah in scoring Monday Sexton logged 23 points (9-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 28 minutes during Monday's 110-102 loss to the Mavericks.
Impact Keyonte George has been slumping badly to start the season, but Sexton picked up the slack here and delivered an excellent performance despite the fact Utah ended up losing once again. Sexton is averaging 17.0 points per game while shooting 56.3 percent from the field to open the campaign, and even though he's bound to regress in the efficiency department sooner than later, the veteran guard has been one of the few bright spots in the Jazz's 0-3 start.
OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE
Keyonte George - Best scoring output of season George provided 17 points (6-18 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, five assists and one steal in 36 minutes during Monday's 110-102 loss to the Mavericks.
Impact George surpassed the 15-point mark for the first time this season in this game, but there's no question the sophomore guard has been slumping to start the 2024-25 campaign. He's averaging 13.7 points, 5.0 assists and 3.0 rebounds per game through his first three appearances, and while those numbers are good enough to keep him rostered and starting in most formats, he needs to find a way to improve his shooting percentages -- and soon. He's making just 27.1 percent of his shots, as well as 23.8 percent of his threes, to open the campaign.
