Utah Jazz News and Rumors - NBA

Lauri Markkanen - 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.

Impact Love will sit out the first leg of a back-to-back set for rest purposes, but he should be back in action for Thursday's game in Dallas. Love's absence could open up some mintues for Kyle Filipowski and Kyle Anderson.

Jusuf Nurkic - Dominates glass in win Nurkic had 11 points (4-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 17 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and three steals in 30 minutes during Monday's 123-112 victory over the Cavaliers.

Impact The 17 boards tied his season high, as Nurkic recorded his 11th double-double of the campaign in his return from a two-game absence due to a toe injury. Six of those double-doubles have come in his last 10 appearances dating back to Dec. 12, a stretch in which the veteran center is averaging 15.4 points, 11.7 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.1 threes while shooting 59.4 percent from the floor and a stunning 61.1 percent (11-for-18) from beyond the arc.

Walter Clayton Jr. - Drops out of rotation Monday Clayton (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the Jazz's 123-112 win over the Cavaliers.

Impact Though he appeared in each of Utah's previous 22 games and saw double-digit minutes in each of the last eight contests, Clayton was dropped from the 10-man rotation Monday along with Taylor Hendricks while head coach Will Hardy opened up spots for veterans Svi Mykhailiuk and Kevin Love following a 55-point loss to the Hornets on Saturday. Given that Mykhailiuk and Love are both on expiring contracts and don't appear to be part of the non-contending Jazz's long-term plans, Clayton's absence from the rotation could very well wind up being short-lived. Before not playing Monday, the rookie first-round pick had been faring well of late as an offensive creator on the second unit, averaging 10.3 points and 3.2 assists against 1.0 turnovers in 23.0 minutes over six January games while shooting 44.1 percent from downtown.

Lauri Markkanen - Double-double in Monday's win Markkanen logged 28 points (8-16 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 9-12 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 36 minutes during Monday's 123-112 win over the Cavaliers.

Impact The double-double was his fourth of the season, with three of them coming in his last 10 games dating back to Dec. 15. While Markkanen's had trouble staying on the court, he's been very productive when he is in the lineup, averaging 28.8 points, 8.4 boards, 2.7 threes, 2.5 assists and 1.5 steals over that 10-game stretch.
