Collin Sexton News, Rumors, Updates - Chicago Bulls

Making second start of season Sexton will start Monday's game against the Clippers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Impact Sexton is set to draw the start at point guard with Mike Conley (lower leg) out of commission. His last start dates back to Oct. 29 against Memphis when he finished with 19 points, two rebounds, four assists and one block in 32 minutes.

Jazz beat Blazers 118-113 to take Western Conference lead

Jordan Clarkson scored 28 points, including eight straight in the final 1:48, in the Utah Jazz’s 118-113 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers on Saturday night

Little production in loss Sexton totaled three points (1-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four assists and one rebound over 17 minutes during Tuesday's 118-111 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Although Sexton usually executes well with the team's second unit, he was little more than an afterthought in Tuesday's loss, tying for his worst scoring total of the season. Sexton has faded into the woodwork occasionally while Mike Conley and Jordan Clarkson handle the bulk of the backcourt work.

Excellent stat line from bench Sexton closed with 22 points (6-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 8-9 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Sunday's 110-102 win over the Clippers.

Impact For now, everything appears harmonious with Sexton coming off the bench, but it's hard to imagine Sexton retaining this role for the entire season. Mike Conley and Jordan Clarkson have been entrenched in the starting lineup through the first few weeks of the season, but one wonders if that us sustainable with a talent like Sexton waiting in the wings. If Sexton is available on the waiver wire, he's worth a spot on your bench and an occasional start due to his volume with the second unit.

Records 19 points off bench Sexton accumulated 19 points (7-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, three assists and two steals across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 103-100 loss to Dallas.

Impact Sexton has played off the bench in all but one game this season, and even though this is a role he's not used to, as he was a regular starter during his four-year tenure with the Cavaliers, he's finding ways to perform. The former Alabama standout has scored at least 15 points in three straight outings and has recorded double-digit scoring figures in all but two of his nine outings, averaging 13.2 points per game and shooting a decent 46.4 percent from the field.

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.

Making first start with Conley out Sexton will start Saturday's game against the Grizzlies due to the absence of Mike Conley (rest), Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact Sexton has seen limited action this season -- surprising, given that he was the centerpiece of the Donovan Mitchell trade. There's been no word regarding Sexton still suffering lingering effects from his meniscus tear last season, so the only assumption we can make is that coach Will Hardy views him as a backup. Sexton has an opportunity Saturday to prove he deserves more time. Encouragingly, he's still been productive per minute, averaging 23.5 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.4 steals per 36 minutes.

Available Friday Sexton will be available for Friday's matchup against Denver, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact Sexton was listed as questionable due to an oblique injury, but he's been cleared for Friday's contest. It's unclear if he'll have any restrictions during the matchup, but he's yet to see 20-plus minutes in a game since scoring 20 points across 21 minutes during the season opener.

Questionable at Denver Sexton (oblique) is questionable for Friday's game against the Nuggets, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

Impact If Sexton plays, he could have a chance at more minutes than usual with Rudy Gay (COVID-19 protocols), Walker Kessler (illness) and Simone Fontecchio (COVID-19 protocols) on the injury report. Sexton has seen 20-plus minutes in just one game this season -- the opener.

Won't return Wednesday Sexton won't return to Wednesday's contest against Houston due to a left oblique contusion.

Impact It appeared that the guard picked up the injury sometime during the first half of Wednesday's matchup. Sexton posted four points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT) and one steal in 10 minutes before exiting. He'll presumably be tabbed day-to-day leading up to the team's next game Friday against Denver.

OCTOBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Plays only 15 minutes in loss Sexton racked up 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and one assist over 15 minutes during Monday's 114-108 loss to the Rockets.

Impact It's been a bit of a disappointing start for Sexton, who's come off the bench and played limited minutes in all four games thus far. He did suffer a torn meniscus roughly a calendar year ago, so that may be a factor in his reduced workload. Either way, at some point it's possible -- if not likely -- the Jazz will unleash the 2018 first-round pick in a larger role, but for now it's tough to justify starting him in many formats. Through four appearances, Sexton is averaging 12.3 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 18.5 minutes per contest.

Back to bench Sexton will operate off the bench during Friday's preseason finale against the Mavericks, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact Sexton made his first start with the Jazz during Tuesday's exhibition, but he'll return to the bench for Friday's preseason finale as Jordan Clarkson gets the start at shooting guard. Clarkson normally operates off the bench, but with Donovan Mitchell now in Cleveland, it's possible Clarkson enters the starting lineup to begin the 2022-23 campaign.

OCTOBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Set to make first start with Jazz Sexton will start in Tuesday's preseason game versus the Spurs, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.

Impact Sexton will make his first start with the Jazz on Tuesday after being traded from the Cavaliers. The fifth-year guard signed a four-year, $72 million contract with Utah, so he should be a key part of the team this season. With the departures of Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert, Sexton could be in line for a big season statistically.

Supplies 13 points from bench Sexton produced 13 points (5-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and an assist across 17 minutes in Tuesday's 118-101 win over the Trail Blazers.

Impact Sexton has only been with the team a little over a month, and after missing most of last season with a torn meniscus, seeing Sexton on the bench isn't a huge surprise. Before too long, Sexton should find his way into the starting lineup, as Utah didn't sign him to a $72 million contract to come off the pine.
