Jazz's Ace Bailey: Continues to ascend
Bailey provided 13 points (5-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt), four rebounds and four assists over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 121-93 victory over Sacramento.
After a rough start to his career, the first-year forward is starting to showcase the potential that made him the No. 5 overall pick in this past year's draft. Over his last 12 appearances, Bailey has averaged 15.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.6 three-pointers in 32.6 minutes per contest.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Solid showing in win
Bailey provided 16 points (7-14 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Monday's 115-111 victory over the Heat.
Bailey served as a solid contributor on the offensive end and has now put up 15-plus points in three of his last four outings. He was also more involved than usual on the glass, performing well above his 3.7-rebound season average. However, Bailey has been a bit shaky from beyond the arc recently, resulting in a 5-for-19 (26.3 percent) skid over this same four-game stretch.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Continues to show promise
Bailey closed Thursday's 121-119 loss to Atlanta with 20 points (9-26 FG, 2-8 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 40 minutes.
The rookie No. 5 overall pick is really starting to come into his own as of late, scoring at least 19 points in six of his last nine games. The Jazz have some reinforcements on the way following an active trade deadline, but they'll certainly want to continue getting an extended look at the first-year forward down the stretch. Bailey is averaging 16.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.9 blocks in 32.5 minutes per game in his last nine outings.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Bounces back in victory
Bailey logged 19 points (7-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-6 FT), four rebounds, three blocks, three steals and one assist in 40 minutes during Tuesday's 131-122 victory over the Pacers.
After scoring just four points on 1-for-10 shooting from the field in Sunday's loss to Toronto, Bailey bounced back in a major way. The rookie first-rounder saw increased playing time following Utah's trade for Jaren Jackson earlier in the day, as only seven Jazz players saw the court against Indiana. Bailey finished as Utah's third-leading scorer and has posted at least 19 points in three of his last five appearances. He also stuffed the stat sheet on the defensive end, matching his season highs in blocks and steals. He has recorded multiple steals in three of his last four outings.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Strikes for 19 in Wednesday's loss
Bailey recorded 19 points (8-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt), seven rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 140-124 loss to the Warriors.
The fifth overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft has found a groove in January. Bailey has scored in double digits in eight of nine games since rejoining the starting five, averaging 16.3 points, 4.6 boards, 2.2 assists, 1.9 threes and 1.4 combined steals and blocks over that stretch.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Scores team-high 20 poins in loss
Bailey finished Tuesday's 115-103 loss to the Clippers with 20 points (8-16 FG, 4-9 3Pt) and one rebound over 29 minutes.
The Jazz were shorthanded without Keyonte George (rest) and Jusuf Nurkic (illness), so Bailey was called upon to produce more during the loss. The rookie's 20 points marked his third-highest scoring total of the season, just behind a season-high 25 points that he recorded against the Spurs last week.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Pops for career-high 25 in loss
Bailey posted 25 points (11-16 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds and two assists over 32 minutes during Thursday's 126-109 loss to the Spurs.
The 25 points led the Jazz on the night while establishing a new career high for Bailey. The fifth overall pick in the 2025 Draft has looked good since getting back up to speed after a hip injury, and over the last six games, he's averaged 16.0 points, 5.2 boards, 2.3 assists, 1.7 threes and 1.0 combined steals and blocks while shooting 50.6 percent from the floor.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Hits for 20 in Tuesday's win
Bailey chipped in 20 points (8-17 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 127-122 victory over the Timberwolves.
The rookie forward produced his best scoring effort since Nov. 24, when he dropped 21 points on the Warriors. Bailey has started five straight games since putting a hip flexor strain behind him, averaging 14.2 points, 5.0 boards, 2.4 assists, 1.6 threes and 1.2 combined steals and blocks over that span.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Shows two-way potential
Bailey finished with 15 points (6-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals across 30 minutes during Thursday's 144-122 loss to Dallas.
Bailey's rookie campaign has ebbed and flowed, but the signs of a potential high-end player on both sides of the ball were on display against Dallas. Bailey's 15 points were the most he's scored in January, and it was the second time in his career that he ended with at least two blocks and two steals. He'll have a chance to put another good game together in a rematch against Dallas on Saturday.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Starting sans Markkanen
Bailey is part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Bulls.
Bailey has come off the bench in each of his last two appearances as he battled injury. The rookie will jump back into the first unit Wednesday night, as the Jazz will be without Lauri Markkanen (illness).

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Good to go Monday
Bailey (hip) is available for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.
Bailey, who has missed seven of Utah's past eight games, was able to shed his questionable tag for this contest. He's not quite 100 percent yet, and he's likely to remain under some restrictions for the time being.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Iffy for Monday
Bailey (hip) is questionable for Monday's game against Cleveland.
Bailey has missed seven of Utah's last eight games due to a left hip flexor strain, though he'll have a shot at returning Monday. The rookie first-rounder will likely face a minutes restriction if he's cleared to play, though his presence would leave fewer minutes available for Cody Williams and Svi Mykhailiuk.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Not playing Saturday
Bailey (hip) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Hornets.
Bailey will miss a second consecutive game while nursing a left hip flexor strain, which is the same injury that caused him to miss the Jazz's five games before their overtime loss to the Thunder on Wednesday. Bailey's next opportunity to play is Monday against the Cavaliers, though given how long he's been dealing with his injury, the Jazz could opt to play things cautiously with the rookie first-rounder. Brice Sensabaugh should continue to see additional playing time for as long as Bailey is sidelined.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Ruled out vs. Dallas
Bailey is out for Thursday's game against the Mavericks due to a left hip flexor strain, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
The rookie first-rounder is sitting out the second leg of Utah's back-to-back Thursday. Barring any setbacks, Bailey figures to be available for Saturday's clash with the Hornets. With some minutes freed up, Brice Sensabaugh seems to be worth streaming in shallow fantasy leagues and Svi Mykhailiuk in deeper formats.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Struggles in return
Bailey (hip) recorded two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and one steal over 10 minutes during Wednesday's 129-125 overtime loss to the Thunder.
Bailey returned from a five-game absence due to a left hip flexor strain, but after starting in each of his previous 21 appearances and averaging 26.0 minutes per contest, he came off the bench and handled his lightest workload of the season Wednesday. While Bailey should eventually reclaim his spot on the top unit, the Jazz are likely to take a cautious approach with him and ramp him up slowly, which means his playing time could be limited for the foreseeable future. Even as a starter, Bailey has failed to make the most of his opportunities thus far, averaging 12.3 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.0 three-pointers and 1.5 assists in those 21 contests.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Iffy for Thursday
Bailey is questionable for Thursday's game against the Mavericks due to a left hip flexor strain.
Bailey returned from a five-game absence in Wednesday's defeat in Oklahoma City, and he's in danger of sitting out the second leg of this back-to-back. If the rookie first-rounder can't suit up, Svi Mykhailiuk and Brice Sensabaugh would see an increase in streaming value Thursday.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Available to play
Bailey (hip) is available for Wednesday's game in Oklahoma City.
Bailey will be coming off the bench in his return from a five-game absence Wednesday evening, and the reserve role implies a minutes limit in his first game back. With Bailey active, Cody Williams could drop out of the rotation entirely.

Jazz's Ace Bailey: Iffy for Wednesday
Bailey is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Thunder due to a left hip flexor strain.
The rookie first-rounder is trying to end a five-game absence with the strain. If Bailey isn't ready to return Wednesday, Brice Sensabaugh would likely continue to start. Svi Mykhailiuk and Taylor Hendricks would also have an opportunity to claim a more sizable role in this case.
