Isaiah Collier - Assigned to G LeagueThe Jazz assigned Collier to the G League's Salt Lake City Stars on Monday.

ImpactThe rookie first-round pick has seen consistent playing time off the Jazz's bench this season, but he'll head to the G League to get some additional reps. Over his last 15 outings (including one start), Collier has averaged 3.7 points, 3.5 assists, 1.8 rebounds and 1.0 steals over 18.2 minutes per game.

Brice Sensabaugh - Scores nine pointsSensabaugh notched nine points (3-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and one steal in 17 minutes during Sunday's 141-97 loss to the Kings.

ImpactSensabaugh made the most of his limited minutes in this blowout loss. He's played well so far this season and is hitting 46.2 percent from the field and 41.8 percent from beyond the arc through his first 17 games, but his workloads are still pretty low. He could see his value increase quickly if the Jazz end up being sellers at the trade deadline.

Keon Ellis - Records three stealsEllis notched five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and three steals over 16 minutes during Sunday's 141-97 win over the Jazz.

ImpactEllis finished one theft short of his career-high mark of four steals. His role and production is trending in the wrong direction to start December, as he's averaging 4.0 points, 2.0 assists, 1.8 rebounds and 1.8 steals in 14.0 minutes over his last four games.

Doug McDermott - Scores 18 points in blowoutMcDermott contributed 18 points (6-7 FG, 6-7 3Pt) over eight minutes during Sunday's 141-97 victory over Utah.

ImpactThe Kings ran away with this game early, allowing McDermott to feast in garbage time as he reached double-digit points for the first time this season. McDermott is usually not in the rotation for the Kings, so this can be chalked up as an outlier performance.

Lauri Markkanen - Notches just eight pointsMarkkanen logged eight points (2-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and four assists in 25 minutes during Sunday's 141-97 loss to the Kings.

ImpactUtah's franchise player appeared in three consecutive outings before missing Friday's win over Portland due to injury management. The Jazz are 5-18 on the season, so it's likely that they exercise caution with Markkanen whenever possible. He's had a quiet season by his standards, as his production is down nearly across the board compared to 2023-24, as well as his shooting percentages.
