UTA • Power Forward and Center • #42

Love’s absence isn’t meaningful now that Jaren Jackson Jr. is on the roster. Kyle Filipowski may see a few extra minutes behind Jusuf Nurkić, but Filipowski isn’t worth a look while competing for minutes in a crowded Utah frontcourt.

Love was upgraded to probable early Saturday, so his availability isn’t a surprise for the game against the Magic. With the Jazz’ acquisition of Jaren Jackson Jr. and other players available, Love isn’t likely to see enough minutes to be fantasy-relevant unless something changes.

After missing Utah’s last two games, Love is on track to be available for Saturday’s game. However, with Jaren Jackson Jr., Kyle Filipowski and Jusuf Nurkić available, there may not be enough minutes for Love to affect fantasy basketball. Nurkić has been a DNP-CD in the last two games; if he isn’t starting, don’t expect him to play.

Love has missed Utah’s last two games due to illness. His availability does not affect fantasy basketball, especially with the Jazz adding Jaren Jackson Jr. at the trade deadline. While it remains to be seen how much JJJ and Jusuf Nurkić will play on Saturday, Love is not likely to get the minutes needed to offer value.

Love will miss a second consecutive game due to illness. Jusuf Nurkić is available, but that was also the case for Tuesday’s win over the Pacers, a game in which he did not play. The only safe option for fantasy managers is Kyle Filipowski.

Live did not play in Tuesday’s win over the Pacers. If he’s available for Thursday night, there’s no guarantee that the veteran forward/center will play. Starting center Jusuf Nurkić was available on Tuesday but never saw the floor, with Kyle Filipowski playing heavy minutes. Of the rotation bigs on the Jazz roster, Filipowski is the only one who fantasy managers can feel safe slotting into their lineups.

Love was listed as doubtful with an illness, so it’s no surprise he was ultimately ruled out for Tuesday’s game against the Pacers. Kyle Filipowski is likely to move into the starting lineup with Jusuf Nurkic (rest) also out.

Love isn’t expected to play against Indiana while he deals with a lingering illness, so Kyle Filipowski could get the starting nod at center with Jusuf Nurkić (rest) sidelined.

Love missed the last two games with an illness, but the 37-year-old power forward is available for Sunday’s matchup with the Raptors. He was initially listed as probable, so his availability isn’t a surprise. With Jusuf Nurkić also active, Love doesn’t have much of a fantasy ceiling as the Jazz close out Week 15.

Love is on track to return after a two-game absence, providing the Jazz with additional frontcourt depth. However, with starting center Jusuf Nurkić (illness) also being upgraded to probable, Love has a limited fantasy ceiling for Utah’s final game of Week 15.

Love has missed the last two games, one for rest reasons and the other due to an illness. His availability does not significantly affect fantasy basketball, especially if Jusuf Nurkić (illness) is available. Both are listed as questionable, so there may be more minutes available to Kyle Filipowski.

Love will miss a second consecutive game, this one due to illness after resting on Wednesday. The Jazz won’t have Jusuf Nurkić (illness) either, so expect a heavy dose of Kyle Filipowski.

Held out of Wednesday’s loss to the Warriors for rest reasons, Love is on the injury report ahead of Friday’s game due to an illness. With Jusuf Nurkić also questionable, only one of the two veteran centers may be available. If so, that should leave more room for Kyle Filipowski in the frontcourt.

With Jusuf Nurkić (illness) out, Love started Tuesday’s loss to the Clippers. Nurk is questionable for Wednesday’s game; he’ll slide back into his usual role as the starting center if cleared to play. If Nurkić can’t play, Kyle Filipowski will likely be the starter.

Love did not play in Saturday’s loss to the Heat, which factored into Kyle Anderson playing 15 minutes off the bench. If Love can play on Tuesday, he may start, as Jusuf Nurkić (illness) is listed as doubtful. No Nurk may also mean that Anderson sticks in the rotation.

Love will be sidelined with a knee injury, which means he won’t be available as a depth piece with Jusuf Nurkic (illness) expected to be out. Kyle Anderson should take on a few extra minutes off the bench.

Love is back after sitting out Tuesday’s win over the Timberwolves, which was Utah’s second game in as many nights. His return will likely push Kyle Anderson out of the rotation entirely, and Kyle Filipowski’s playing time may decrease.

With Brice Sensabaugh and Lauri Markkanen also out, Kyle Filipowski could see a big uptick in playing time. Filipowski is worth a look for managers in need of a Tuesday streamer.

Love will sit out the first leg of this back-to-back, which likely is to make sure he’s available against Dallas on Thursday. That likely means they’ll rest some players that play on Wednesday, such as Jusuf Nurkić. Kyle Filipowski should see extra minutes in both games.

The Jazz won’t have Jusuf Nurkić for Thursday’s game, as he is out with a toe injury. As a result, Love will step in as the starting center. The other change to the Jazz lineup is Williams, who replaces Svi Mykhailiuk in the starting five.

Love was rested on Wednesday’s game against the Thunder, so it makes sense that he would be good to go for the second leg of the back-to-back. With Jusuf Nurkic listed as questionable, it’s possible that Love could return to play around 20 minutes in this one.

Love will miss a second consecutive game for rest. With starters Lauri Markkanen and Jusuf Nurkić and reserve Kyle Filipowski available, Love’s continued absence does not affect fantasy basketball.

Love is getting Monday night off, even though it’s not part of a back-to-back. Kyle Filipowski will figure more prominently in the Jazz rotation, especially if Jusuf Nurkić remains out with his toe injury.

With Jusuf Nurkić still out due to injury, it was Love who started Saturday’s game and not Kyle Filipowski. While the veteran forward/center didn’t do much scoring in San Francisco, he was effective as a rebounder and playmaker. As for Filipowski, he tallied seven points, one rebound, one assist, one steal and one blocked shot in 19 minutes off the bench. Generally speaking, Filipowski has been more valuable to fantasy managers than Love, and that will be the case later in the season. However, the veteran was more productive than his younger teammate on Saturday.

Love is available after three games off for rest. How much he plays will depend on Lauri Markkanen and Jusuf Nurkić, both of whom are questionable for Saturday’s game. If the starters can play, Love’s opportunities will be limited.

Love has been ruled out due to “rest” for a third straight game, so whenever he ends up playing again, he should feel quite refreshed. With Jusuf Nurkic sidelined as well, Oscar Tshiebwe may return to the rotation to fill the backup center minutes behind Kyle Filipowski.

Love had 14 points and three three-pointers in Friday’s win over the Pistons. The 37-year-old power forward has more than earned a night off. Kyle Filipowski and Taylor Hendricks could see more minutes in Love’s absence against the Spurs.

The Jazz won’t have Lauri Markkanen or Jusuf Nurkić for Tuesday’s game, opening up two spots in the starting lineup. The voids will be filled by Love and Filipowski, who are worth rostering due to Utah’s lack of frontcourt depth.

Love will not play on Monday for rest reasons. With Kyle Anderson absent from the injury report, he may pick up a few rotation minutes. However, there’s no need to roster Anderson.
