Sensabaugh tallied a second straight 20-point game on Friday — three-point shooting played a role, as did free-throw shooting and two-point scoring. But also for a second straight game, the former Ohio State Buckeye struggled with ball protection. Turnovers aside, Sensabaugh has made fantasy impact throughout the season. With four games left in the regular season, Sensabaugh should continue to function as one of Utah’s best offensive options.

Friday’s 34-point defeat was nothing to celebrate for the Jazz, but Bailey’s continued production to close the regular season could serve as a bright spot. In 33 minutes, the rookie forward impressed as a scorer, shooting above 50.0 percent from the floor to finish as one of three Jazz players with at least 20 points. He was cold from beyond the arc for a second straight game. Yet, even as the three-point shooting has fluctuated, it’s still been a positive end of the season for Bailey.

Williams’ strong end-of-season production continued in the Jazz’s lopsided loss. The second-year guard led Utah in minutes, totaling 38, and was very active in those opportunities. The near 30-point scoring performance on high efficiency stands out, but so does the work he did on the glass. Williams’ balanced production ultimately led him to a second double-double on the season. He should continue to perform well down the stretch.

The Jazz have made just one change to their starting lineup for Friday’s game. Konchar will start, bumping Oscar Tshiebwe to the bench. While the opportunity makes him deserving of a look in deep leagues, Konchar is faced with a challenging matchup.

Goodwin played 12 minutes in Thursday’s defeat, with his night coming to an end late in the third quarter. The Suns guard had his right arm landed on by Hornets center Ryan Kalkbrenner, but that was not the issue that forced his exit. Following the game, Suns head coach Jordan Ott said Goodwin injured his left calf, the same one that sidelined him for seven games in late February/early March. A potential absence would not affect fantasy basketball, but it would leave the Suns shorthanded on the wings.

Available for the first time in a month, Williams made his return to action in the city where he began his NBA career. The Suns’ center was used in a reserve role, and he scored efficiently in his 20 minutes. Add in the three blocks, and this was a good night for Williams despite the defeat. Oso Ighodaro remained in the starting lineup, tallying six points, nine rebounds and one assist in 25 minutes. The Suns are off until Sunday, and it would be unsurprising if Williams and Ighodaro swapped roles in that day’s game against the Bulls.

While Devin Booker cooled off considerably in the second half of Thursday’s 127-107 defeat, Green was solid throughout. The Suns’ guard shot over 50 percent from the field and finished with a complete stat line, including seven assists and three “stocks.” With Phoenix ending its Week 22 in Chicago on Sunday, that could be a big day for Green, with the Bulls headed for the draft lottery.

After scoring 17 first-half points, Booker appeared poised for a big night in Charlotte. Unfortunately for him and those rostering the Suns’ star, the Hornets did a much better job of defending him in the second half. Booker shot 2-of-6 from the field after halftime, scoring just five points. The good news for fantasy managers was that he put up solid rebound and assist numbers, salvaging something from what was a disappointing night.

Williams is officially back after a monthlong absence. Whether he starts or comes off the bench, Williams’ return means fewer minutes for Oso Ighodaro. Unless there’s a dire need for rebounds and assists, Ighodaro offers limited fantasy upside with Williams available.

Mbeng still has one day remaining on his second 10-day contract, so the Jazz will reportedly wait until its expiration to complete the rest-of-season deal. This move also clears the way for Mbeng to join Utah’s Summer League squad. In Wednesday’s loss to the Nuggets, he played 23 minutes, finishing with seven points, one rebound, two assists and one steal.

Konchar was one of two Jazz players to record double-doubles against the Nuggets. His stats were produced off the bench, as he shot efficiently, competed on the defensive end, and made a notable impact with his facilitating. Konchar did a little bit of everything in Wednesday’s game, which led to some quality fantasy production. He’s nothing more than a last-resort streaming option during Championship Week.

Filipowski finished the night as one of two Jazz players to reach the 20-point mark. His scoring came in a fairly diverse manner — three-pointers, two-pointers, and free throws were all factors. And although he only played 31 minutes, Filiposwki was still able to secure double-digit rebounds before the final horn sounded. He’s now gone for 20 or more points in four straight games and will have a chance to extend that streak to five games against the Rockets on Friday.

Sensabaugh was one of the bright spots for the Jazz in their loss to the Nuggets. He was both aggressive and efficient as a scorer, especially from the three-point line, which led to most of his scoring production on Wednesday. His assist-to-turnover pro was even, he collected a couple of stocks, and contributed fairly well on the glass over his 33 minutes. Sensabaugh averaged over 20 points per game in March and is beginning in April by picking up where he left off.

Williams’ potential return to the Suns’ lineup carries some implications in fantasy basketball. Oso Ighodaro has served as the starting center in Williams’ absence, offering limited fantasy value. However, he is rostered in 19 percent of Yahoo! leagues. Even if Williams’ playing were to be restricted in his return to action, that would be enough to make Ighodaro a non-factor in most leagues.

Booker followed up his 36-point performance in Monday’s win over the Grizzlies with 34 points in the loss to the Magic on Tuesday. The 29-year-old became the third-youngest shooting guard in NBA history to score 18,000 career points and only Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant were younger. Booker has provided fifth-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Suns have two games remaining in Week 23, the first of which comes Thursday against the Hornets.

Out of the lineup since suffering a fractured left hand in a February 21 game against the Magic, Brooks will make his return in Tuesday’s rematch. He has started all 50 games that he has appeared in this season, so the veteran wing is likely to take on that role immediately, even if there’s a minutes limit attached. Royce O’Neale, who finished Monday’s win over the Grizzlies with nine points, four rebounds, one assist and two three-pointers, may be the odd man out of the Suns’ lineup.

Chandler made his first start since joining the Jazz on Monday, as Utah was without Keyonte George, Isaiah Collier and EJ Harkless due to injury. While the efficiency was poor, with Chandler shooting 25 percent from the field and committing five turnovers, he played 40 minutes. That alone may raise some eyebrows as the Jazz move forward with the rest of their Week 23 schedule. Bez Mbeng (5/2/4/3 with one three-pointer) played 29 minutes off the bench, but Chandler is the Jazz guard worthy of a look if Utah remains this shorthanded at point guard.

Bailey extended his streak of games in double figures to eight, scoring 19 points while shooting over 50 percent from the field. There weren’t any defensive stats to speak of, but the rookie did record a season-high five assists.

Filipowski has scored at least 20 points in three straight games, but Monday’s double-double was his first since a March 9 win over the Warriors. Interestingly, he only played 24 minutes against the Cavaliers, likely a byproduct of Evan Mobley doing whatever he wanted in the post. The role Filipowski currently has won’t align with his role when next season begins, especially if Utah re-signs Walker Kessler. To carve out a consistent role for himself in 2026-27, he has to make strides defensively.

While his performance did not come in a victory, Williams’ play against the Cavaliers was encouraging after a brutal Saturday night in Phoenix. Two nights removed from throwing up a bagel on 0-of-9 shooting, the second-year forward surpassed 20 points for the fourth time in his last six appearances. Williams’ category league value remains low, but he’s shown some signs of being able to add value in deeper points leagues. The Jazz play three more games in Week 23, starting with the Nuggets on Wednesday.

Green’s streak of 20-point performances grew to five games on Monday, with efficient shooting both inside and outside the arc leading him to finish as the Suns’ second-leading scorer. The athletic scoring guard likely could have seen even greater numbers if not for the Suns taking a sizable lead in the fourth quarter, which would leave him on the bench for the entire final frame. Still, Green walks away with solid production and a low minutes total before Tuesday’s second game of a back-to-back against Orlando.

Gillespie struggled with his shooting again on Monday. He’s shooting 8-of-35 from the field over the last three games, while going 5-of-26 from beyond the arc over that same period. Yet, the former Villanova Wildcat made up for his shooting struggles by impressing as a passer against the Grizzlies; he reached double figures in assists for the first time in March to tally his third double-double of the season. Getting back on track as a three-point shooter would give a huge boost to Gillespie’s fantasy production. He’ll have a chance to land strong numbers on Tuesday against the Magic.

Booker was highly productive on Monday en route to Phoenix’s second win in as many games. His seventh 30-plus-point performance of March came in just 26 minutes of game action, as the Suns opened up a big fourth-quarter lead that allowed Booker to sit the entire final quarter. While the lack of high minutes limited his overall production, fantasy managers still have to come away from Monday’s game pleased with Booker’s contributions. He’ll look to end the month on a high note against the Magic on Tuesday.

Bailey did not have a good night shooting the basketball, as he was 4-of-12 from two-point range and committed four turnovers. However, fantasy managers will be pleased with the rebounds and blocks. Over his last five games, the rookie has blocked 12 shots, providing value that some may not have anticipated. Since the All-Star break, Bailey has provided fifth-round value in eight-cat formats.

Limited to 13 points in Friday’s loss to the Nuggets, Sensabaugh doubled that number on Saturday.

After putting up 25 points in Friday’s loss to the Nuggets, Filipowski was one point better on Saturday. The second-year center shot just over 71 percent from the field, and the overall stat line was excellent.

Ighodaro didn’t miss a shot from the field on Saturday; such is life when you’re able to play off of guards who can set you up around the basketball consistently. While his fantasy value has remained relatively low, the second-year center has done enough to merit rostering in deep leagues while the Suns await Mark Williams’ return from a foot injury. Ighodaro’s role for Week 23 should remain the same, which is good for those who have been rostering him.

On a night when starter Collin Gillespie (0/3/7/1/1) missed all eight of his three-point attempts, Allen’s shooting off the bench was critical. He made four of his 11 three-point attempts while also recording a complete stat line in one of his better all-around performances since the All-Star break. Allen has played 23 and 21 minutes in two games since returning from a knee injury, and his minutes are likely to increase moving forward. In that scenario, Gillespie’s opportunities may take a hit.

Two days after scoring 24 points in a loss to Washington, Williams matched that total in this game, though he was even more efficient in this one.
