Out with illness Markkanen is out for Wednesday's game against the Bulls due to an illness.

Impact The star forward has a short turnaround if he wants to suit up in time for Thursday's matchup in Dallas. With Markkanen taking a seat Wednesday, Brice Sensabaugh appears to be worth streaming in the majority of fantasy leagues. Kyle Filipowski could also see an uptick in minutes, given that Kevin Love is resting.

Downgraded to doubtful Markkanen (illness) is now doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Bulls.

Impact Markkanen recently popped up on the morning injury report as questionable, but he continues to trend in the wrong direction, and it appears the Jazz will play it safe on the front end of this back-to-back set. With Markkanen likely to sit, the Jazz could lean more on Kyle Filipowski, while Talyor Hendricks could crack the rotation.

Questionable for Wednesday Markkanen (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bulls.

Impact Markkanen was a late addition to the injury report, presumably after waking up under the weather. Wednesday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, and it's worth noting that the Jazz are usually cautious with Markkanen. If he sits out, guys like Taylor Hendricks and Kyle Filipowski could be more involved.

Will play Monday Markkanen (rest) is not being listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's matchup with the Cavs.

Impact Markkanen took a rest day Saturday, but he'll be back in action Monday evening, which will likely shift Taylor Hendricks back to the second unit. Jusuf Nurkic (toe) is also on track to play, so with both Nurkic and Markkanen active, Kyle Anderson could drop from the rotation entirely.
