Walker Kessler - Another absence coming Kessler (nose) is out for Thursday's game versus the Rockets, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.
Impact Kessler will miss his fourth straight contest Thursday due to a nasal fracture. Omer Yurtseven should receive another start in his absence.

Collin Sexton - Out again Thursday Sexton (illness) won't play in Thursday's game against the Rockets, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.
Impact Sexton will miss a second consecutive game due to illness, which should allow for Johnny Juzang to remain in the starting lineup while Talen Horton-Tucker and Jason Preston are candidates to see more work off the bench. Sexton's next chance to play will come Friday against the Clippers for Utah's penultimate game.

Kris Dunn - Won't play Thursday Dunn (foot) will remain on the sidelines for Thursday's game against the Rockets, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.
Impact Dunn is set to sit out Utah's final home game of the season, and with just two more games on the schedule after that, it seems unlikely we'll see Dunn in uniform again this season. Keyonte George and Johnny Juzang will continue to pick up the slack in Dunn's absence.

Talen Horton-Tucker - Hits for team-high 24 Horton-Tucker finished with 24 points (10-23 FG, 4-8 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 32 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 111-95 loss to Denver...
Impact The 23-year-old guard led the Jazz in scoring on the night as he saw big minutes in the absence of Collin Sexton (illness), Jordan Clarkson (back) and Kris Dunn (foot). Horton-Tucker has scored 12 or more points in each of his last three games, draining multiple three-pointers in each, and he figured to hang onto a significant role in the backcourt over the final few games of the regular season.

Omer Yurtseven - Double-double against Nuggets Yurtseven ended with 20 points (9-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and two steals in 37 minutes during Tuesday's 111-95 loss to Denver.
Impact Making his third straight start in the absence of John Collins (back) and Walker Kessler (nose), Yurtseven delivered his first double-double of the season. The 25-year-old center has averaged 13.3 points, 8.3 boards, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steals during his brief starting stint, and with Utah headed back to the draft lottery, Yurtseven could see a significant tole over the final handful of games left on the schedule.
APRIL 10 • ROTOWIRE
Luka Samanic - First career double-double Tuesday Samanic posted 15 points (6-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds and three assists across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 111-95 loss to the Nuggets.
Impact The 24-year-old forward played a career high in minutes Tuesday for a Utah frontcourt missing Lauri Markkanen (shoulder), John Collins (back) and Walker Kessler (nose), and Samanic turned the workload into his first career NBA double-double. With the Jazz just jockeying for lottery positioning, it's possible Samanic retains a significant role in the rotation for the final few games of the season.

Johnny Juzang - Starting against Denver Juzang is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nuggets, Utah Jazz's play-by-play commentator David Locke reports.
Impact Juzang will move to the starting lineup due to the absence of Collin Sexton (illness) and on the heels of a 27-point effort off the bench the last time out. He's made just one start this season, where he posted eight points across 21 minutes in a loss to the Rockets on March 23.

Collin Sexton - Ruled out for Tuesday Sexton (illness) will not play Tuesday against the Nuggets, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
Impact The writing was on the wall once Sexton was downgraded to questionable earlier in the day. With the Jazz out of playoff contention, it's not a surprise to see them err on the side of caution. With Sexton out, guys like Talen Horton-Tucker, Jason Preston and Kira Lewis could have more opportunities.
