Brice Sensabaugh

Brice Sensabaugh has had a rough month of November, but it was good to see a bounce back game from the scoring department. Sensabaugh kept the Jazz afloat in the fourth quarter on the offensive end when the Magic shut off the water on everyone else. He remains a stream guy for points and 3’s in redraft leagues, but not a high priority one.

Brice Sensabaugh is a bench scorer who thrives on hitting tough shots. While Lauri and Jaren are out, Brice could be looked at as a stream option if you need some points and three pointers, but he won’t give you much more than that.

Brice Sensabaugh is a proven scorer and will have value as a points streamer with some three pointers. The Jazz aren’t likely to be able to afford Sensabaugh unless they make other moves. In dynasty leagues, it might be worth inquiring what it would cost to acquire him. In 22 games as a starter last year, he averaged 20.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3 assists, three 3-pointers and shot 50.5% FG, 42.9% 3FG%, and 79.7% FT on 3 attempts per game. While it’s likely that he’s not a starter, he can be in 6th man of the year conversations for years to come.

Sensabaugh is back after sitting out Friday’s blowout win over the Grizzlies. He’s capable of putting up big numbers, but the Jazz may look to limit the wing’s minutes to protect their draft lottery odds. The Jazz and Kings go into Sunday with matching 22-59 records, tied for fourth-worst in the league. Sacramento visits Portland, which secures the No. 8 seed with a victory.

With Sensabaugh out, the Jazz will have to account for the absence of the production that he brings offensively. John Konchar, who played 38 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Pelicans, may move into the starting lineup, where he can provide solid steals value.

Sensabaugh was one of the bright spots for the Jazz in what was otherwise a mess of a game for Utah. He hit six three-pointers. The 22-year-old small forward’s point total was a game-high. Sensabaugh has now scored at least 26 points in three of his last five games. The Jazz have three games in the final week of the regular season, starting with a matchup against the Pelicans on Tuesday.

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.

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.

Limited to 13 points in Friday’s loss to the Nuggets, Sensabaugh doubled that number on Saturday. While he didn’t offer a great deal beyond the points and field-goal percentage, the third-year Jazz forward shot 9-of-16 from inside the arc. Utah plays four games in Week 23, and Sensabaugh can step up for deep-league managers as he continues to start.

Sensabaugh is available after sitting out Wednesday’s loss to the Wizards. Even though he comes off the bench, Sensabaugh is in a position where he needs to be rostered in 14-team leagues and some 12-team formats as well.

Sensabaugh scored 24 points off the bench on Monday, but he will be back on the sidelines against Washington, a game which happens to be pivotal in the tank race. John Konchar should take on extra minutes with Sensabaugh unavailable.

While Sensabaugh’s final points tally was solid, he could have been better. The Jazz wing made just one of his nine attempts from beyond the arc, and he was also responsible for six of the team’s 15 turnovers. However, even with the inefficient Monday night, Sensabaugh has been a sixth-round player since March 1. Given Utah’s priority for the rest of the season, he is worth picking up, especially with the Jazz having three more games in Week 22 and four in Week 23.

Sensabaugh will miss a second straight game as he continues to recover from an illness. Not only did Andersson Garcia move into the starting lineup for Thursday’s win over the Bucks, but he also played all 48 minutes. While that workload may not happen again, deep-league managers should consider streaming Garcia.

Utah is unsurprisingly dealing with multiple absences across the roster, and Ace Bailey should be the next man up with Sensabaugh sidelined and Konchar not expected to play. Andersson Garcia should see extra run, too.

Sensabaugh came out hot on Wednesday, scoring 23 first-half points. The Jazz wing would finish with his second career 40-point game, making 13 of his 22 shots from inside the arc. While Sensabaugh was responsible for five turnovers, the overall line compensates for that. The Jazz play two more games in Week 21, starting with the shorthanded Bucks on Thursday.

If there’s one thing about Sensabaugh, it’s that he isn’t going to get cheated on his shot attempts. That approach comes in handy when his playing time is limited, as it was on Sunday. Sensabaugh played 23 minutes against the Kings and put up 17 shots, with only Cody Williams and Isaiah Collier taking more. He may not have offered much production outside of points and three-pointers, but Sensabaugh remains a good option for points leagues in the final weeks of the regular season.

Sensabaugh may not be a point guard, but he’s one of the players whose fantasy value may be boosted while Keyonte George (hamstring) is out. Even more of the offense ran through Sensabaugh on Friday, and he responded with his second game of at least 30 points this season. His points tally has increased in each of Utah’s last four games, and the third-year forward has averaged 18.1 points per game in March. Sensabaugh is rostered in 25 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and that number should increase ahead of Sunday’s game against the Kings.

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.

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.

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.
