Fri Mar 21 | 15:12 | John Collins Out Again On Friday Against Celtics |
Utah Jazz forward John Collins (ankle) will miss his fifth consecutive game on Friday while he continues to suffer from a sprained left ankle. The Jazz have fully embraced the youth movement as they head towards better odds in the draft lottery. Since Lauri Markkanen (personal) is also out, Walker Kessler and Kyle Filipowski will likely remain in the starting five like their last game. Filipowski is available in a wider range of leagues and just posted 21 points, four rebounds, and two assists in their last game against the Washington Wizards. |

Fri Mar 14 | 14:57 | John Collins Out For At Least Two Weeks |
The Utah Jazz have announced that forward John Collins (ankle) has suffered a lateral ankle sprain in his left ankle and will be re-evaluated in two weeks. The 27-year-old has battled a multitude of injuries this season and appeared in 40 of a possible 66 games so far. The earliest he would be back is March 27 against the Houston Rockets, so Brice Sensabaugh and Kyle Filipowski will likely see a sizeable boost in minutes in the meantime. Both have been inconsistent, but could be used in short streaming spurts. Sensabaugh averages 9.9 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game while Filipowski has posted 8.3 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 1.9 assists. |

Tue Mar 4 | 20:48 | John Collins To Remain Sidelined On Wednesday |
Utah Jazz forward John Collins (back) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Collins is set to sit out for the sixth time of the last seven games. The Jazz aren't exactly playing for much at this point, so they have little incentive to play their starters right now. That being said, Brice Sensabaugh and Kyle Filipowski figure to continue playing significant roles in the rotation. Both players are worth a look as streaming options while the Jazz are shorthanded. Filipowski has been the better option between the two forwards lately. |

Mon Mar 3 | 20:08 | John Collins Misses Meeting With Pistons |
Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (back) will not be in action on Monday against the Detroit Pistons. Following a three-game absence, Collins was back in the lineup on Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves, but he will miss a second straight contest on Monday. The Jazz also remain without Lauri Markkanen (back), which opens up additional playing time for Kenyon Martin Jr, Brice Sensabaugh, and Kyle Filipowski. The latter has posted three double-doubles in the past four games, while Sensabaugh finished among Utah's top scorers in the last game with 21 points. Martin Jr's production has been inconsistent, making him the least appealing fantasy option out of these players. |

Fri Feb 28 | 20:32 | John Collins Back For Jazz Friday |
Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (back) will return to action in Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He is ready to rejoin the fun after missing three games due to a back problem.

He began the season as a bench contributor but has been a starter for each of his last 28 appearances. |

Thu Feb 27 | 20:19 | John Collins Tagged As Questionable For Friday |
Utah Jazz forward John Collins (back) has been tagged as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. It appears Collins has a chance of getting back on the court after missing each of the last three games due to back soreness. Fellow forward Lauri Markkanen (back) is also questionable for this game. If they both sit, KJ Martin and Brice Sensabaugh figure to continue playing bigger roles in the rotation. The return of Collins would likely send Martin back to the bench where he wouldn't offer much streaming appeal. Martin is coming off a 16-point outing during his last game, but his days of fantasy relevancy are likely limited. |

Tue Feb 25 | 20:28 | John Collins Remains Out On Wednesday |
Utah Jazz forward John Collins (back) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Collins will now miss his third game in a row due to a back issue. The Jazz aren't exactly playing for anything this season, so there is no incentive to rush Collins back to the court. However, the Jazz are a bit shorthanded with Lauri Markkanen (back) ruled out and Walker Kessler (illness) listed as questionable for Wednesday's game. That means, Brice Sensabaugh and Kyle Filipowski will likely both see larger roles in the rotation. Both players are worth looking at as streaming options while the Jazz are shorthanded. |

He put in a decent performance against his former team, notching 11 points and four rebounds in a 125-114 victory. Brice Sensabaugh, Kyle Filipowski, and Cody Williams are also potential beneficiaries of Collins' absence. Another chunk of frontcourt minutes may open up on Monday, as Lauri Markkanen (back) and Walker Kessler (illness) are both listed as questionable for the game. |

Wed Jan 29 | 20:54 | John Collins Tagged As Questionable For Thursday |
Utah Jazz forward John Collins (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Collins has missed the last three games and actually has only played in two games since the beginning of the month. That being said, fantasy managers shouldn't be shocked if Collins misses another game. The Jazz have been using a committee approach to help fill the void while Collins is out. That means, Drew Eubanks, Kyle Filipowski, and Brice Sensabaugh should all see increased roles if Collins misses another game. Out of the trio, Sensabaugh offers the most streaming appeal right now. |

Wed Jan 22 | 19:24 | John Collins Returns To Jazz Lineup |

A hip injury knocked Collins out of the lineup after he had enjoyed a productive start to the season. The 27-year-old averages 17.9 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 1.1 steals for the campaign. However, Collins may see only limited action on Wednesday after playing just once since Dec. 21, and he faces a top defensive team, which might also hinder his productivity. |

Fri Jan 17 | 11:13 | John Collins Sidelined On Friday |
Utah Jazz forward John Collins (hip) has been ruled out for Friday's game for injury management on his left hip. With Collins sitting out against the Pelicans along with Walker Kessler (rest) and Lauri Markkanen (back), the frontcourt will be very thin. Micah Potter, Kyle Filipowski, and Brice Sensabaugh will all see some added playing time. In their last game, Potter posted two points and four rebounds while Sensabaugh had 19 points, four assists, and four rebounds. Filipowski even contributed eight points, two assists, and two rebounds, but Sensabaugh seems to be the better streaming option at this moment. |

Filipowski finished Sunday's 112-111 overtime win with 12 points, five rebounds, two assists, and one steal. He faces a tricky matchup on Wednesday, as the Hornets have the seventh-best rebounding rate among all teams, despite holding the third-worst record in the league. |

In the meantime, Brice Sensabaugh (illness) and Kyle Filipowski (ankle) could see more minutes. But if neither of those players get on the floor, Micah Potter may get a few extra minutes of action, although not enough to warrant fantasy consideration. |

The Jazz play the Nets on Sunday, and with Collins listed as out because of injury management purposes, it appears there's a chance he could return for that one. Brice Sensabaugh (illness) and Johnny Juzang (hand), who are both questionable, could see more work without Collins available. However, if they don't suit up, Kyle Filipowski, coming off an 11-rebound, two-steal, one-block effort versus the Heat, could be a streaming option for fantasy managers. |

Mon Jan 6 | 20:09 | John Collins Out Tuesday Against Atlanta |
Utah Jazz forward John Collins (personal) won't face his former team on Tuesday when the Jazz host the Hawks. Collins has played just one game since December 21 after missing five games with a hip contusion before returning on Saturday and then missing Sunday's game with a personal matter that will also keep him away from the team on Tuesday. On Sunday, Micah Potter started in his spot against the Jazz and had three points, two rebounds, a steal, and a block in 21 minutes. Off the bench, Brice Sensabaugh and Kyle Filipowski both had big games with Sensabaugh scoring a team-high 27 points after scoring 34 points on Saturday night in Miami. Sensabaugh was the Jazz's first-round pick in 2023, and he should continue to get a chance to showcase his upside while Collins, Jordan Clarkson (foot), and Keyonte George (heel) are all sidelined. |
