Carrington had been questionable despite playing 36 minutes against the Heat on Tuesday, but the 20-year-old will be able to suit up after all. However, with Trae Young (knee) not on the injury report, Carrington will head back to the bench, where he’ll play around 20-23 minutes.

Back in the Jazz lineup after missing Monday’s win over the Warriors, Bailey has scored at least 21 points in two of his last three appearances. Rostered in 37 percent of Yahoo! leagues, the rookie has been a top-100 player since the All-Star break. Given where the Jazz are in their rebuild, Bailey is going to play plenty in the final weeks of this season. And with Keyonte George going down with a hamstring injury during Wednesday’s defeat, there may even be more opportunities for Bailey to serve as a facilitator. The Jazz play two more games in Week 20, starting with a game against Portland on Friday.

Sensabaugh and the Jazz came out hot on Wednesday, with the team shooting 9-of-11 from beyond the arc in the first quarter. His 29 points were the most in a game for the third-year wing since January 14, when he dropped a career-high 43 in a loss to the Bulls. With Keyonte George injuring his hamstring during the third quarter, Sensabaugh is one of the players who should have the ball in his hands more moving forward.

George appeared to pull his right hamstring while attempting to challenge a Knicks shot attempt early in the third quarter, reaching back for the area almost immediately. The Jazz point guard immediately departed for the locker room and has not returned. With George appearing likely to miss time, Isaiah Collier is a must-add where available. And EJ Harkless will be worth a look in deep leagues.

George is one of the Jazz players who has been dealing with an illness, most recently playing 24 minutes in Monday’s win over the Warriors. His availability means that Isaiah Collier will come off the bench, but he remains a player who should be rostered this time of year.

Johnson’s offensive production has picked up recently, with the rookie having scored at least 15 points in three consecutive games. He was efficient against the Heat, shooting over 50 percent from the field. Unfortunately, the overall stat line was a bit lean on Tuesday. Johnson has the potential to be an impactful option for fantasy managers over the final month, especially in points leagues, as his playing time should be a priority for the Wizards.

Riley led the Wizards in minutes on Tuesday, and he’s scored at least 19 points in four of his last six appearances. Interestingly, the rookie was used in a reserve role in the two games before that, with Leaky Black as the starter. One would think that starting Riley would be a priority for the Wizards the rest of the season, but you never know. Hopefully, Tuesday’s performance convinces the Wizards to leave Riley in the starting five.

The Wizards are still limiting Sarr’s playing time, but he made the most of his 20 minutes on Tuesday. The 28 points are the most in a game for the second-year center since putting up 29 in a January 27 win over the Trail Blazers, and three shy of his season-high. However, as encouraging as this performance was, Sarr’s playing time is a concern for fantasy managers the rest of the season. And with the front office wanting to strengthen its draft lottery odds, there isn’t much incentive to play Sarr heavy minutes.

Konchar started in Utah’s last game, but with Ace Bailey (illness) back, he may be pushed back to the bench if he plays. If he doesn’t, Brice Sensabaugh should be locked in to a second straight start after scoring 21 points against the Warriors on Monday.

George was cleared to play after landing on the injury report early Monday afternoon due to an illness.

For the first time in his career, Filipowski has hit double digits in rebounds in four consecutive games. On Monday, he extended his double-double streak to three, and it was also the fourth time in his career that the second-year center had tallied at least 15 points and 15 rebounds in the same game. Given the injuries that have sapped Utah’s interior depth, Filipowski is a must-roster player for the rest of the season.

With the Warriors employing a smaller starting lineup, Sensabaugh was moved into Utah’s starting five on Monday, with Oscar Tshiebwe (10/8/1/1 in 20 minutes) being dropped to the bench. While he can be a bit streaky as a scorer, Sensabaugh was efficient against the Warriors, shooting over 50 percent from the field. However, he was responsible for four turnovers, which is an area Sensabaugh needs to clean up moving forward.

The Jazz have made two changes to their starting lineup for Monday’s game. With Ace Bailey (illness) unavailable, Konchar will start, and he’s capable of providing solid steals production.

Young only played 18 minutes in his second game with the Wizards after playing 19 minutes in his debut on Thursday. While the 27-year-old point guard was productive with 17 points and eight assists, the key to him regaining a fantasy ceiling is playing more minutes. As it currently stands, Young is difficult to trust down the stretch of the fantasy season.

After reaching double figures in points for the first time in a month on Thursday, Williams made it two straight games on Saturday. The second-year forward also recorded his first career double-double in Milwaukee, another step in the right direction.

While he didn’t have his best night shooting the basketball, Filipowski’s overall stat line is what fantasy managers will be looking for during the silly season. The double-double was his second in as many games, with the Jazz center reaching double digits in rebounds in three straight. Filipowski played 34 minutes on Saturday, and he’s logged at least 29 in four of his last five appearances. Make sure he isn’t sitting on your league’s waiver wire.

Sensabaugh entered Saturday having averaged 9.8 points over his last four games, shooting 24.5 percent from the field. Not only did he need a performance like Saturday’s, but so did those who held out hope that Sensabaugh would add value during the silly season. His showing in Milwaukee was a step in the right direction, but Sensabaugh’s inconsistency is a concern heading into a four-game Week 20 for the Jazz.

George had a rough night shooting the basketball, but his ability to get to the foul line salvaged the night. The Jazz guard made 12 of his 13 attempts from the charity stripe and has scored at least 22 points in four of his last six appearances.

The rookie has started all three games of his NBA career after signing a two-way contract less than a week ago, but this way by far his best performance. This was his highest-scoring and highest-rebounding game so far, and he completely dominated down low, which included 10 offensive rebounds. Reese should certainly be considered for teams in need of boards down the stretch of this season, though it is unlikely this carries over into next year.

Young finally made his debut for Washington after Atlanta traded him nearly two months prior. He was expected to be limited to 17-20 minutes, and he ended up falling inside that range at 19 minutes. While there were some fun moments with him on the floor, and there is a clear vision for this team next season, Young will need to see his minutes increase for him to truly make a fantasy impact. Otherwise, he ends up being a big name that’s too good to drop but not productive enough to help in the fantasy playoffs. Unfortunately, Washington likely won’t have much interest in playing him much more than he did in this game.

Filipowski has long been considered an elite stash candidate, and managers are finally getting to cash in. He has been a starter for most of the past month, and this was arguably one of his best performances of the season.
