Impact After starting each of Utah's last eight games, the 22-year-old swingman will slide to the second unit in favor of Svi Mykhailiuk on Monday. Sensabaugh has averaged 9.8 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 17.6 minutes per game across 27 appearances off the bench so far this season.

Svi Mykhailiuk - Joining starters Monday Mykhailiuk is starting Monday's game against Cleveland, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.

Impact Mykhailiuk didn't sniff the court Saturday against Charlotte due to a coach's decision, but he'll be back in the rotation Monday and will start alongside Keyonte George, Cody Williams, Lauri Markkanen and Jusuf Nurkic. Mykhailiuk is averaging 6.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.0 assists in his last five starts.

2 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Ace Bailey - Good to go Monday Bailey (hip) is available for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.

Impact Bailey, who has missed seven of Utah's past eight games, was able to shed his questionable tag for this contest. He's not quite 100 percent yet, and he's likely to remain under some restrictions for the time being.

Jusuf Nurkic - Available to play Nurkic (toe) will be available for Monday's game against Cleveland.

Impact Nurkic is set to return from a two-game absence, and it's possible he faces some restrictions. With this news, Kevin Love will likely shift back to the bench for Utah. Over his last 12 appearances, Nurkic has averaged 14.3 points, 10.3 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 0.8 threes and 0.9 steals over 27.9 minutes per game.

Georges Niang - Remains without timetable Niang (foot) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.

Impact Niang has yet to make his season debut as he recovers from a fourth metatarsal stress reaction in his left foot and remains without a timetable for a return. The veteran forward should be considered week-to-week until the Jazz offer an update on his progress.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Jusuf Nurkic - Probable to return Monday Nurkic (toe) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.

Impact Nurkic is trending toward returning Monday from a two-game absence due to a toe sprain, and his return would likely result in Kevin Love reverting to a bench role. Nurkic has appeared in just 12 of 19 games since Dec. 1 due to injury, and over that span he has averaged 14.3 points, 10.3 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 0.8 threes and 0.9 steals over 27.9 minutes per game.

Lauri Markkanen - 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.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Ace Bailey - Iffy for Monday Bailey (hip) is questionable for Monday's game against Cleveland.

Impact Bailey has missed seven of Utah's last eight games due to a left hip flexor strain, though he'll have a shot at returning Monday. The rookie first-rounder will likely face a minutes restriction if he's cleared to play, though his presence would leave fewer minutes available for Cody Williams and Svi Mykhailiuk.

Brice Sensabaugh - Drops season-high 26 points in loss Sensabaugh accumulated 26 points (9-16 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 5-6 FT) and three rebounds in 30 minutes during Saturday's 150-95 loss to Charlotte.

Impact With Lauri Markkanen (rest), Ace Bailey (hip) and Jusuf Nurkic (toe) unavailable, Sensabaugh stepped up on the offensive end, albeit in a blowout loss. The 22-year-old swingman set a new season-high mark in points, scoring at least 20 for the fifth time across 37 regular-season outings (nine starts). Sensabaugh has scored in double figures in five of his last six games (all starts), averaging 15.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 29.0 minutes per contest over that stretch.

Isaiah Collier - Nears double-double in loss Collier finished with 17 points (8-16 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine assists, two steals and one rebound in 34 minutes during Saturday's 150-95 loss to Charlotte.

Impact After totaling 13 points and 11 assists in his previous two appearances. Collier finished one assist shy of a double-double, albeit in a blowout loss. The second-year point guard saw 30-plus minutes for just the fifth time this season with multiple key contributors sidelined, and he scored double-digit points for the second time in his last five outings. Collier continues to produce inconsistent scoring numbers, though he has dished out at least eight assists in 11 of his last 15 outings.

Cody Williams - Chips in 15 points in loss Williams finished Saturday's 150-95 loss to Charlotte with 15 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT) and two rebounds in 32 minutes.

Impact Williams got the starting nod for a second consecutive contest and finished as Utah's third-leading scorer on efficient shooting from the field. However, he also recorded an abysmal minus-60 point differential. The second-year forward has logged double-digit minutes in eight straight games, though Ace Bailey's (hip) eventual return to action and a normal workload should significantly eat into Williams' minutes.
