Inks two-way deal with Utah Tshiebwe signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Jazz on Monday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

Impact Tshiebwe will be on a two-way deal with Utah for the second straight season. He played in 14 regular-season games with the squad during the 2024-25 campaign, averaging 7.6 points and 8.7 rebounds across 18.2 minutes per game, shooting 60 percent from the field.

Excels off the bench in finale Tshiebwe closed Sunday's 116-105 loss to the Timberwolves with 18 points (7-8 FG, 4-5 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals across 25 minutes.

Impact Tshiebwe finished the season with the parent club after spending most of the season with the Salt Lake City Stars. Tshiebwe was one of the best players in the developmental league this season with 37 double-doubles. He joins Micah Potter as a promising frontcourt addition waiting to make a bigger impact next season.

Returning to bench Monday Tshiebwe is not in Utah's starting lineup against Charlotte on Monday, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.

Impact Tshiebwe made his first NBA start Friday against the Nuggets and finished with seven points, 10 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 26 minutes in a 129-93 loss. He'll come off the bench Monday while Kyle Filipowski starts at center.

Double-digit boards in first start Tshiebwe accumulated seven points (2-5 FG, 3-3 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 26 minutes during Friday's 129-93 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Making his first career NBA start, Tshiebwe pulled down double-digit boards for the fourth time in six March appearances. The second-year center has bounced between the Jazz and the G League Salt Lake City Stars all month, but he's been useful for Utah when given the opportunity, averaging 6.7 points and 8.7 rebounds in 17.8 minutes during those six contests while shooting 55.2 percent from the floor.

MARCH 29 • ROTOWIRE

Getting first NBA start Friday Tshiebwe is in the Jazz's starting lineup against the Nuggets on Friday.

Impact With both Walker Kessler (illness) and Lauri Markkanen (rest) out, Tshiebwe will make the first start of his NBA career Friday. Tshiebwe has appeared in two of Utah's last five games but has spent most of the season in the G League with the Salt Lake City Stars, where he has averaged 17.1 points on 59.4 percent shooting, 19.1 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.0 blocks over 32.4 minutes per game.

MARCH 29 • ROTOWIRE

Rejoins parent club The Jazz recalled Tshiebwe from the G League's Salt Lake City Stars on Tuesday, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact After registering 22 points, 23 rebounds, five assists, two steals and two blocks in Sunday's 110-108 G league loss to the Austin Spurs, Tshiebwe will provide the Jazz with frontcourt depth for Tuesday's game against Memphis in the absences of Lauri Markkanen (illness) and John Collins (ankle). Tshiebwe has averaged 5.4 points, 7.8 rebounds and 0.8 steals in 14.8 minutes over eight games with Utah this season.

MARCH 25 • ROTOWIRE

Listed out for Friday Tshiebwe is out for Friday's game against the Celtics due to an undisclosed injury, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact Tshiebwe pulled down 10 rebounds and added four points over 18 minutes during Wednesday's matchup against the Wizards, but he evidently picked up an injury at some point along the way. His next opportunity to suit up will arrive Sunday against the Cavs.

MARCH 20 • ROTOWIRE

Late scratch Sunday Tshiebwe (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the 76ers.

Impact Tshiebwe was a late scratch Sunday due to the illness, and his next chance to play will come Monday against Boston. The big man has dominated in the G League, which has earned him playing time with the parent club recently. Over three outings with the Jazz in March, Tshiebwe has averaged 7.7 points and 9.7 rebounds across 15.0 minutes per contest.

MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE

Cracks rotation, posts double-double Tshiebwe totaled 16 points (8-9 FG), 13 rebounds, one assist and one steal in 20 minutes during Sunday's 128-121 loss to New Orleans.

Impact With the Jazz holding out John Collins (back), Walker Kessler (rest) and Lauri Markkanen (back) on Sunday, the Jazz had room in the rotation for Tshiebwe. Making just his fifth appearance at the NBA level all season, Tshiebwe responded by recording career highs in both points and rebounds. The two-way player could be in store for some more opportunities down the stretch for the Jazz if the organization elects to shut Kessler, Collins and Markkanen down for good at some point in late March or early April.

MARCH 3 • Associated Press

Recalled from G League The Jazz are recalling Tshiebwe from the G League's Salt Lake City Stars on Wednesday, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact With Lauri Markkanen out with a back injury, Utah has called up Tshiebwe for some frontcourt depth ahead of Wednesday's game against the Warriors. The 25-year-old big man has played 15.3 minutes per game over three appearances with the Jazz this season, so it's possible he plays a role off the bench against Golden State.

Inks two-way pact with Utah The Jazz signed Tshiebwe to a two-way deal Monday, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact After waiving Taevion Kinsey on Monday, the Jazz utilized their last two-way spot to sign Tshiebwe.

Makes NBA debut Wednesday Tshiebwe finished Wednesday's 140-126 loss to the Bucks with one point (0-1 FG, 1-2 FT) and one rebound across six minutes.

Impact Tshiebwe played six minutes Wednesday, making his professional debut. There is nothing to see here from a fantasy perspective, quite clearly. It's great to see some new blood in the league but he would need a numbers players ahead of him in the rotation to miss time to have any chance at playing a meaningful role in the rotation.
