Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Will play Wednesday
Nurkic (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Warriors.
Nurkic missed Tuesday's loss to the Clippers due to an illness but will shed his questionable tag and suit up in the second leg of this back-to-back set. The veteran big man has recorded a triple-double in three straight appearances, and he has averaged 16.2 points, 13.0 rebounds, 8.8 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks in 30.6 minutes per game over his last five outings.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Questionable for Wednesday
Nurkic (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Warriors.
Nurkic remains day-to-day after missing the front end of this back-to-back set Tuesday against the Clippers. The center has been red hot with three straight triple-doubles to his name. However, he's appeared in only seven of Utah's past 15 games.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Won't play Tuesday
Nurkic is out for Tuesday's game against the Clippers with an illness.
Nurkic faces a quick turnaround if he wants to suit up in time for Wednesday's matchup against the Warriors. Kyle Filipowski should handle the bulk of the center minutes Tuesday, and Kevin Love looks to be in position to play the backup role.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Unlikely to play Tuesday
Nurkic (illness) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Clippers.
After posting three consecutive triple-doubles, Nurkic is expected to sit out the front end of this back-to-back set due to an illness. If the big man is ultimately ruled out, Kyle Filipowski and Kevin Love (knee), the latter who is listed as probable, would be candidates for increased playing time.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Available to play
Nurkic (illness) is available for Saturday's game against the Heat.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Triple-doubles again
Nurkic generated 17 points (8-13 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 10 rebounds, 12 assists, one steal and one block across 31 minutes of Saturday's 147-116 loss to Miami.
Nurkic became the eighth player in the NBA to post three triple-doubles this season, and he joins Nikola Jokic (knee) and Jalen Johnson as the only players in the association to have three consecutive triple-doubles this year. Nurkic's success hasn't exactly translated to wins -- Utah has lost two straight games by double-digits -- but it's certainly been a welcome sight for fantasy managers. Nurkic had one career triple-double before 2025-26, and it came during the 2018-19 season. In 36 games this season, Nurkic is averaging 11.2 points, 10.2 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.3 blocks across 26.5 minutes per game.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Upgrades to questionable Saturday
Nurkic (illness) has been upgraded from doubtful to questionable for Saturday's game against the Heat.
Nurkic is battling through an illness, but he is trending positively toward being available for Saturday's game, which tips off at 9:30 p.m. ET. If Nurkic is unable to play, then Kyle Filipowski would like start at center for the Jazz.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Unlikely to play Saturday
Nurkic (illness) is doubtful for Saturday's game against Miami.
Nurkic is unlikely to play Saturday while battling an undisclosed illness. The big man started the previous three games and posted massive production, averaging 17.7 points, 12.7 rebounds and 9.7 assists in 30.7 minutes per contest, including two triple-doubles. With Nurkic doubtful and Kevin Love (knee) already ruled out, Utah's thin frontcourt may have to lean on Kyle Filipowski and Kyle Anderson for extended minutes at center.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Posts another triple-double
Nurkic finished with 17 points (7-19 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 11 rebounds, 14 assists, one steal and one block in 35 minutes during Thursday's 126-109 loss to the Spurs.
Nurkic turned in his second triple-double in as many games with another stellar performance Thursday night. The big man's playmaking ability has been on full display lately, as he's dished out double-digit assists in back-to-back appearances after failing to do so in his first 33 games of the campaign. Nurkic has now recorded two of Utah's last three triple-doubles dating back to 2008, per Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune, and he's just the second player in franchise history to produce back-to-back triple-doubles, with the other being Hall of Famer Pete Maravich back in 1975.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Triple-doubles in victory
Nurkic notched 16 points (7-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 18 rebounds, 10 assists, one steal and one block across 31 minutes in Tuesday's 127-122 win over the Timberwolves.
Nurkic impressed Tuesday, stuffing the stat sheet en route to his second career triple-double, with his first coming Jan. 16, 2019, when he played for Portland. The big man led all players with a season-high 18 rebounds. Additionally, he tied the game-best mark in assists, setting a new season high. Nurkic has racked up three double-doubles and a triple-double over his last five appearances, averaging 16.6 points, 14.2 rebounds and 5.4 assists per tilt during that span.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Looks sharp in loss
Nurkic posted 20 points (9-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt), nine rebounds and five assists in 26 minutes during Monday's 123-110 loss to San Antonio.
Nurkic took the floor for the first time since Jan. 12 after being held out of three straight games due to a coach's decision, and he didn't show any signs of rust. He saw plenty of volume on the offensive end with Lauri Markkanen (illness) sidelined and fell one rebound shy of a double-double. Nurkic has been highly effective while on the court for the Jazz this season, averaging 14.1 points and 10.8 rebounds since Dec. 1 (13 games), though the Jazz have a clear interest in giving looks to the younger pieces of the roster, which could limit his fantasy ceiling.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Starting Monday
Nurkic will start Monday's game against the Spurs.
After three straight games without seeing the floor, Nurkic is right back in the first unit. The Jazz have been known for doing a lot of head-scratching things, so Nurkic could be very hard to trust as a fantasy asset going forward with the team completely focused on their rebuild.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Doesn't play Wednesday
Nurkic was a DNP-Coach's Decision for Wednesday's 128-126 loss to Chicago.
Nurkic missed two straight games due to a toe injury before logging an 11-point, 17-rebound double-double Monday against Cleveland. However, after not being a part of Utah's injury report, he didn't leave the bench Wednesday.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Dominates glass in win
Nurkic had 11 points (4-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 17 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and three steals in 30 minutes during Monday's 123-112 victory over the Cavaliers.
The 17 boards tied his season high, as Nurkic recorded his 11th double-double of the campaign in his return from a two-game absence due to a toe injury. Six of those double-doubles have come in his last 10 appearances dating back to Dec. 12, a stretch in which the veteran center is averaging 15.4 points, 11.7 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.1 threes while shooting 59.4 percent from the floor and a stunning 61.1 percent (11-for-18) from beyond the arc.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Available to play
Nurkic (toe) will be available for Monday's game against Cleveland.
Nurkic is set to return from a two-game absence, and it's possible he faces some restrictions. With this news, Kevin Love will likely shift back to the bench for Utah. Over his last 12 appearances, Nurkic has averaged 14.3 points, 10.3 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 0.8 threes and 0.9 steals over 27.9 minutes per game.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Probable to return Monday
Nurkic (toe) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.
Nurkic is trending toward returning Monday from a two-game absence due to a toe sprain, and his return would likely result in Kevin Love reverting to a bench role. Nurkic has appeared in just 12 of 19 games since Dec. 1 due to injury, and over that span he has averaged 14.3 points, 10.3 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 0.8 threes and 0.9 steals over 27.9 minutes per game.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Downgraded to out
Nurkic (toe) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Charlotte.
Nurkic will miss a second straight game due to a toe sprain in his left foot. His absence will mean more opportunities for Kevin Love and Kyle Filipowski. Nurkic's next chance to play will come Monday at Cleveland.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Questionable for Saturday
Nurkic (toe) is questionable for Saturday's game versus the Hornets.
Nurkic sat out the second leg of a back-to-back set with the toe issue Thursday, which resulted in Kevin Love drawing the start, while Kyle Anderson was able to get into the rotation. It'll be more of the same if Nurkic needs to miss Saturday's game, but we'll have a better idea on Nurkic's status based on his activity level at shootaround.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Ruled out for Thursday
Nurkic (toe) won't suit up for Thursday's game versus the Mavericks.
Nurkic is getting a maintenance day on the second leg of a back-to-back set, but he should be able to get back out there for Saturday's game against the Hornets. With Nurkic unavailable Thursday evening, expect more minutes for Kyle Filipowski and Kevin Love.

Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Iffy for Thursday
Nurkic (toe) is questionable for Thursday's game against Dallas.
Thursday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, and if recent back-to-backs have been any indication, Nurkic could be due for a maintenance day. During Wednesday's loss to the Thunder, Nurkic had 15 points (6-16 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 15 rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals over 33 minutes. Kyle Filipowski could see increased minutes Thursday if Nurkic is held out.
