The All-Star forward hasn't appeared since the Feb. 23 loss to Houston, and the Jazz haven't provided an update on his health since Feb. 26. Until he's re-evaluated, Markkanen can be labeled as week-to-week moving forward.
This is a tough news for Utah's newest addition. Jackson is likely to undergo further evaluation, but fantasy managers should be prepared for the worst.
Nurkic came back from the All-Star break with a nose injury, and he's opting for a procedure to repair the issue. The 31-year-old big man is set to be an unrestricted free agent ahead of 2026-27, and he should receive plenty of interest on the open market this summer after averaging 10.9 points, 10.4 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.3 steals in 26.4 minutes per contest through 41 games this season. With Nurkic's campaign over, the runway is clear at center for Kyle Filipowski to handle a starting role the rest of the way.
Out
J. Konchar
Konchar will hit the sidelines for the second leg of this back-to-back, but he should return for Saturday's matchup with the 76ers. With Konchar out, there will be more minutes available for Andersson Garcia.
George went down with a hamstring injury during Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers, and it'll cost him at least another two weeks. Isaiah Collier figures to hold down the starting point guard job until George returns to health.
Sensabaugh will miss the second leg of this back-to-back set, right after erupting for 41 points (17-31 FG, 4-9 3 Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal across 37 minutes of Wednesday's 147-111 loss to Minnesota. Ace Bailey and Elijah Harkless could see larger roles due to Sensabaugh's absence.
Collier is sitting out the second leg of Utah's back-to-back and can be considered day-to-day ahead of Saturday's matchup with the 76ers. Elijah Harkless and Bez Mbeng should form a timeshare for minutes at point guard Thursday.
