Latest news

  1. Markkanen (wrist) is out for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves, Shreyas Laddha of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

    Markkanen will miss Sunday's game due to a right wrist injury he sustained Oct. 26 against the Grizzlies. Josh Green, Josh Okogie and Brice Sensabaugh are candidates for increased roles with Markkanen sidelined.

  2. Markkanen is questionable for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves due to a right wrist sprain.

    Markkanen initially injured his wrist Oct. 26 against the Grizzlies, and although he has played in four games since then, he may be at risk of sitting out Sunday's contest. Josh Green could get another look in the starting lineup if Markkanen is unable to play.

  3. Markkanen posted 24 points (8-20 FG, 8-15 3Pt), eight rebounds and an assist across 34 minutes in Friday's 112-100 loss to the Mavericks.

    Markkanen led Utah in points, but his impressive shooting from beyond the arc wasn't enough to avoid a 12-point loss. His eight rebounds added fantasy value, but the lack of defensive stats limited his overall contribution. Markkanen remains a valuable source of scoring and three-pointers, and his numbers are trending in the right direction since he's surpassed the 20-point mark in his last three appearances.

  4. Markkanen ended Wednesday's 120-113 overtime loss to the Pelicans with 21 points (6-15 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal across 39 minutes.

    Markkanen struggled inside the arc but compensated with five three-pointers, including a late triple in overtime. He also reached double-digit rebounds and contributed three combined steals and blocks, salvaging a strong fantasy performance despite the inefficient shooting. His 12 attempts from beyond the arc accounted for most of his offensive workload.

  5. Markkanen supplied 22 points (8-16 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Monday's 119-97 loss to the Spurs.

    Markkanen bounced back from a dreadful shooting night in Saturday's 112-90 loss to Portland. His performance marked the first of the season in which he shot better than 47 percent from the field. He finished with game-high figures in scoring and three-pointers while tying Mo Bamba for the team lead in rebounds. Markkanen and the Jazz have struggled out of the gate to begin 2026-27, but there's still plenty of time for him to turn things around from a fantasy perspective.
