Kyle Filipowski News, Rumors, Updates - Utah Jazz

Confusion continues in Utah Filipowski ended with six points (2-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, six assists, one block and two steals in 22 minutes during Saturday's 127-114 victory over the Spurs.

Impact Filiowski remained on the bench Saturday, continuing what has been arguably the strangest rotation in the league to this point. In 14 games over the past month, Filipowski has averaged 11.1 points, 7.1 rebounds and 0.9 three-pointers in 25.9 minutes per contest. Where the confusion starts is when trying to determine his exact role, having started in six of the past 14 games, typically when others are resting. At this stage, Filipowski should be viewed as a stash in standard leagues, at least until the direction in Utah becomes a little clearer.

Impact Filipowski played well in his last start Tuesday against the Grizzlies, when he registered 25 points, 13 rebounds, four assists and two blocks over 35 minutes. However, the second-year big man will revert to a bench role Friday after Jusuf Nurkic was cleared to return.

Double-double in Tuesday's start Filipowski finished with 25 points (9-15 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-8 FT), 13 rebounds, four assists and two blocks across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 137-128 loss to the Grizzlies.

Impact Getting the start with Jusuf Nurkic getting a breather on the second night of a back-to-back, Filipowski delivered his second double-double of the season, while the 25 points tied his season high. The second-year center has been in the starting five for six of 10 games in December, averaging 12.7 points, 7.8 boards, 2.1 assists, 1.1 threes and 1.2 combined steals and blocks in 27.9 minutes on the month while shooting 55.8 percent from the floor.

Starting sans Nurkic Filipowski will start against the Grizzlies on Tuesday, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact With Jusuf Nurkic (rest) unavailable, Filipowski will rejoin the starting five. In five starts during December, the second-year center has averaged 14.6 points, 8.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.0 steals in 30.6 minutes per game.

Season-low 13 minutes Filipowski ended Monday's 135-112 loss to the Nuggets with five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist in 13 minutes.

Impact Filipowski's role went from bad to worse Monday, logging a season-low 13 minutes, including just three minutes in the first half. Over his last three games, Filiowski is averaging just 5.7 points and 6.3 rebounds in 20.3 minutes per contest, well below what fantasy managers are hoping for. There is still reason to believe his role will escalate at some point, although knowing when is proving difficult. At this stage, he should be viewed as more of a stash than a must-roster player.

Shifting to bench role Filipowski isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Nuggets.

Impact Filipowski will return to a bench role following the return of Lauri Markkanen from a groin injury. Filipowski has scored in double figures in three of his last four appearances off the bench but was most recently held to two points in his last showing as a reserve Dec. 12 against Memphis.

Impact Making his third start in the last five games, Filipowski set a new season high in scoring while just missing his second double-double of 2025-26. The second-year center has seen his court time increase over the last couple weeks as the Jazz make an effort not to overwork Jusuf Nurkic, and over the last seven games Filipowski has averaged 13.9 points, 7.7 boards, 2.7 assists, 1.1 threes and 1.0 steals in 30.6 minutes while shooting 54.4 percent from the floor.

Getting chance with first unit Filipowski is starting Thursday's game against the Nets.

Near double-double off bench Filipowski provided 12 points (5-13 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds and four assists in 31 minutes during Sunday's 129-101 loss to the Rockets.

Impact Filipowski is the first man off the bench most nights and is one of Utah's most consistent contributors. Ever since being relegated to the bench Nov. 2, Filipowski is averaging 9.4 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.4 steals and 0.7 blocks across 21.2 minutes.

DECEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Returns after one-game absence Filipowski closed with 18 points (7-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 26 minutes during Friday's 144-112 loss to the Thunder.

Impact Filpowski was able to play through the wrist injury that held him out of Tuesday's loss to the Lakers, and he provided dependable interior support for Lauri Markkanen and Jusuf Nurkic in the loss. Most of Filipowski's production came during garbage time in the fourth quarter, where he accrued seven points, a rebound and an assist. Kevin Love was on fire during the first quarter with the second unit, which is one reason why it took a little while for Filipowski to get his opportunities.
