Impact Peterson led Utah in scoring while knocking down four triples and contributing across multiple categories. The rookie guard attempted a team-high 20 shots, highlighting his prominent offensive role despite the defeat. Although his efficiency from beyond the arc left room for improvement, Peterson's combination of scoring volume, rebounding and defensive production makes him an intriguing fantasy option as he continues to develop.

Scores 22 points with five assists Peterson finished with 22 points (7-19 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block over 33 minutes in Wednesday's 123-108 loss to the Magic.

Impact This was Peterson's fourth straight 20-plus-point performance, and he again led his team in shot attempts. With Lauri Markkanen (hand) set to miss at least the next month, there's a massive hole to fill in Utah's offense, but Peterson looks ready to step into a larger role offensively.

Impact Peterson came close to his career high for the second straight game, and the rookie is starting to look comfortable as Utah's go-to scorer. The turnovers and fouls are still part of the learning curve, but with three starters out, the Jazz are giving him all the touches he can handle. Utah hosts Orlando on Wednesday to finish a back-to-back.

Leads Jazz with 26 points Peterson delivered 26 points (11-21 FG, 4-8 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists and a steal across 35 minutes in Sunday's 115-100 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Peterson carried a substantial offensive workload, attempting a team-high 21 shots, and he seems to be finding his footing offensively while scoring at least 20 points in back-to-back games for the first time in his career. The rookie's current playing time, as he's notched at least 30 minutes in four games in a row, and newfound prominent scoring role remain encouraging indicators for his fantasy outlook. He's also surpassed the 15-point mark in four of his last six outings, averaging 17.0 points per game in that stretch.

Impact Peterson struggled with his overall efficiency but delivered an impressive defensive performance, combining for six steals and blocks while leading Utah with six assists.

His ability to contribute across the board gives him considerable fantasy upside even when his shot isn't falling.

Leading scorer in Saturday's loss Peterson amassed 16 points (6-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 36 minutes during Saturday's 112-90 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact The 16 points led the Jazz on the afternoon, as only two of his teammates even scored in double digits. Peterson is quickly getting the hang of this NBA thing after being the second overall pick in the 2026 Draft, scoring at least 14 points in four of the last five games while averaging 14.2 points, 4.4 boards, 2.8 assists, 2.0 threes and 1.2 steals, but his 35.2 percent shooting during that stretch indicates he still has plenty to work on.

Impact Peterson struggled to find his rhythm from the field but compensated with three triples and a perfect showing at the charity stripe. The rookie displayed his scoring potential despite playing considerably fewer minutes than fellow starters Keyonte George and Ace Bailey. His perimeter shooting and ability to draw fouls should help support his fantasy value as he develops.
