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.

Bailey is back after sitting out Monday’s win over the Warriors. As a result, the Jazz will bring John Konchar off the bench, which is good news for those who have added Sensabaugh to their rosters in recent weeks.

Bailey missed Monday’s game against Golden State, but he’ll return to take on New York. Brice Sensabaugh slid into the starting unit in his place and scored 21 points in 29 minutes, but he will likely head back to the bench with Bailey available.

Bailey was initially questionable for Monday’s game. His absence frees up a spot in the starting lineup. John Konchar does not offer much as a scorer, but the steals production makes him worth a look in deep category leagues. Brice Sensabaugh will be worth a look for managers seeking more offense.

Bailey is a late addition to Utah’s injury report, and if he’s unable to take the court, Brice Sensabaugh could see more opportunities as the next man up. John Konchar may see additional run as well.

Bailey got off to a hot start to this game, scoring 21 points in the first half, which led to him setting new career highs for both points and three-pointers. The rookie is starting to figure things out offensively, but he has also made more of a defensive impact recently, with this being his sixth straight game with at least one steal. With Utah missing multiple stars, Bailey should continue to be a focal point on offense, which should hopefully lead to more outings like this one.

Bailey has reached double figures in 10 of his last 11 games, providing solid offensive value as the Jazz play out the rest of the regular season. For the sake of his future value in category leagues, the hope is that he’ll be able to do a bit more in categories beyond points, rebounds, and three-pointers as he gains more experience. The Jazz hit the road for their final three games of Week 19, starting with the 76ers on Wednesday.

Bailey didn’t have a good night shooting the basketball, but he was impactful in other ways. The rookie wing was active on the glass, grabbing eight rebounds for the fourth time in his last seven games. Also, Bailey matched his season-high with three blocks, hitting that number for the third time this season. Rostered in 34 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Bailey has provided tenth-round value in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break, according to Basketball Monster. He’s one player whose opportunities should not decrease between now and the end of the fantasy season, making Ace a worthwhile target for the silly season.

After being held to four points in Monday’s loss, Bailey got back on track in this one. This was the second-highest scoring outing of his career, surpassed only by his 25-point game against the Spurs last month. With Lauri Markkanen (hip) set to miss at least two weeks, Bailey should be the focal point of the offense for Utah, which should lead to more outings like this one.

Rostered in 35 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Bailey has been a 10th-round player in eight- and nine-cat formats over the past month, according to Basketball Monster. The rookie has been a consistent scorer, hitting double figures in 16 of his last 19 appearances. The production outside of points and rebounds can be limited at times, but Bailey is making strides after struggling to begin his rookie campaign.

Playing in his home state of Georgia for the first time as an NBA player, Bailey put up 20 points and a complete stat line. While the shooting efficiency was lacking, his getting up 26 shots and logging 40 minutes may be a sign of what’s to come if the Jazz shut down their vets later this season. For those who can afford to take a hit in the field-goal percentage category, Bailey is worth picking up. The Jazz end Week 16 on Saturday against the Jazz.

While Bailey did score 20 points in Tuesday’s loss to the Clippers, he offered nothing else on the stat line. That wasn’t the case on Wednesday, as the rookie once again shot the ball well but supplemented that with solid rebound, assist and steal numbers. Bailey’s production in the “other” categories is something to watch, as he has the potential to be a silly season standout.

Bailey was able to score at least 20 points for the third time in his last four games. Unfortunately, even if it was an efficient night, he didn’t provide value in any other categories. Bailey should have more big scoring nights as the season progresses, but his value in category leagues will be dependent on how much he can contribute in other areas. Still, the minutes should be there, and he has had success on offense. He’ll look to stay hot against the Warriors on Wednesday.

One game removed from recording his fourth 20-point game of the season, Bailey enjoyed the most productive night of his rookie campaign on Thursday. The 25 points are a new high for the lottery pick, who was also productive on the glass. Of course, category league managers would like to see some defensive production from Bailey, but he’s taking steps in the right direction.

Bailey had his first game with at least 20 points since November 24 against the Warrior, when he had 21 points. The 19-year-old small forward isn’t a fantasy star just yet. He wasn’t particularly efficient with 20 points on 17 attempts, but the volume was his best in months. Bailey could remain in the starting lineup with the Jazz still shorthanded.

A double-figure scorer in three straight games, Bailey’s performance on Saturday was his best since returning from a hip injury. Of course, category league managers would like to see some defensive production from the rookie, but shooting 50 percent from the field and grabbing eight rebounds was a step in the right direction. The Jazz open a four-game Week 14 on Monday against the Spurs.

Making his second start since returning from a hip injury, Bailey recorded a complete stat line in Thursday’s defeat. Rostered in 15 percent of Yahoo! leagues, the rookie’s fantasy value remains low. However, if fantasy managers can take the hit of Bailey’s inefficient shooting, he’s someone who will have every opportunity to change that during the second half of the season.

Bailey has played in only one of Utah’s last eight games, but he’ll be available to face Cleveland. It’s unclear if he’ll face any restrictions, but Bailey’s return should diminish Cody Williams’ role.

Bailey has missed seven of Utah’s last eight games, resulting in Cody Williams getting a few opportunities to start. While Williams may remain in that role even if Bailey plays on Monday, he is not worth the risk in redraft leagues.

Bailey was only able to play ten minutes in Wednesday’s loss to the Thunder, his first game back after missing five with a strained hip flexor. The rookie did not play on Thursday against Dallas, so Cody Williams played 22 minutes as a starter. Look for something similar on Saturday, and Williams is not worth streaming.

Bailey returned to action after a five-game absence on Wednesday, playing 10 minutes off the bench in a loss to the Thunder. His absence for Thursday’s game will not affect the starting lineup, as Brice Sensabaugh will retain that spot. However, no Bailey should mean more playing time for Taylor Hendricks and Cody Williams.

Bailey missed five games with a hip injury but returned last night to play 10 minutes against the Thunder. The Jazz are clearly going to be cautious with their rookie, so they may sit Bailey for the second game of a back-to-back. That would likely mean more minutes for Brice Sensabaugh on Thursday.

Bailey is set to miss his fifth consecutive game with a left hip flexor strain. Brice Sensabaugh will likely continue to fill in for Bailey in the starting lineup, but he’s only worth considering in deeper formats.

Due to a strained left hip flexor, Bailey has missed Utah’s last four games. Brice Sensabaugh has filled the resulting void in the starting lineup and should continue to do so if Bailey can’t play on Monday. Sensabaugh is only worth a look in extremely deep redraft leagues.

Bailey’s absence on Thursday will mark his third straight after sustaining the hip injury in a win over the Pistons on December 26. The rookie forward had scored in double figures in each of the four games prior and had begun to find a rhythm on the offensive end. Brice Sensabaugh has filled in for Bailey in the starting lineup and should continue to occupy the spot so long as Bailey is sidelined.

Injured during Friday’s win over the Pistons, Bailey will miss a second straight game with a strained left hip flexor. Brice Sensabaugh started Saturday’s win over the Spurs and played 34 minutes. With a similar workload likely for Tuesday, he would be worth streaming on a four-game night.
