Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Makes most of minutes in loss
Markkanen finished with 18 points (6-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal in 23 minutes during Thursday's 121-119 loss to the Hawks.
It was somewhat curious to see Markkanen play just 23 minutes, his second-lowest total of the campaign, in such a hotly-contested game, and he didn't encounter foul trouble. With the 16-36 Jazz starting to reel in the standings, the star forward's playing time will remain worth keeping tabs on going forward. Markkanen has appeared in just five of Utah's last 13 contests, averaging 21.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.0 steals in 30.2 minutes per tilt during that span.

Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Paces Utah in win
Markkanen posted 27 points (10-19 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds and two assists over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 131-122 victory over the Pacers.
Markkanen was one of just seven Jazz players to see the court Tuesday following the team's acquisition of Jaren Jackson earlier in the day. Markkanen led all players in scoring, posting 27 points for a second consecutive contest. The ninth-year forward has appeared in four of Utah's last five games, averaging 22.8 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.0 blocks per tilt during that stretch.

Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Double-doubles vs. Toronto
Markkanen posted 27 points (9-22 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 39 minutes during the Jazz's 107-100 loss to the Raptors on Sunday.
Markkanen was impactful in his return from a one-game absence for rest purposes. He wasn't the most efficient from the field during Sunday's loss, but his work at the charity stripe helped him lead the Jazz in scoring. It was Markkanen's fifth double-double of the season (and first since Jan. 12 against the Cavaliers), and he has averaged 21.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 2.0 threes, 1.3 blocks and 1.0 steals in 33.6 minutes per game in his three outings since returning from a seven-game absence due to an illness.

Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Off injury report for Sunday
Markkanen (rest) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Raptors.
Markkanen sat out Friday's loss to Brooklyn but is set to return to action Sunday. The 28-year-old forward appeared in just seven games in January, during which he averaged 26.3 points, 7.1 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 2.0 combined steals-plus-blocks in 36.4 minutes per contest.

Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Sitting vs. Nets
Markkanen won't play Friday against Brooklyn due to rest purposes.
Markkanen will receive a scheduled night off after appearing in two straight games for the Jazz. Kyle Filipowski figures to be in line for the start at power forward in Markkanen's absence, while Kyle Anderson and Taylor Hendricks could be in line for some extra looks off the bench.

Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Logs 19 points in return to action
Markkanen (illness/conditioning) recorded 19 points (5-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds, four assists and two blocks in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 115-103 loss to the Clippers.
Back in action following a seven-game absence due to an illness and a subsequent reconditioning period, Markkanen didn't appear to be facing any restrictions. He likely would have sailed past the 30-minute mark had he not been subbed out of the game for good with 8:38 remaining, when the Clippers had built a 21-point lead to essentially secure the win. Tuesday's game was the front end of a back-to-back set, and given the Jazz's tendency to frequently hold him out, Markkanen will be at risk of sitting out that contest.

Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Available to play
Markkanen (illness) is available to play Tuesday against the Clippers.
Markkanen finally has the green light to return from a seven-game absence. He was reportedly very ill, and the Jazz may ease him back into things with a modest workload Tuesday. With the Jazz treating him with a lot of caution, random maintenance days may be par for the course the rest of the season.

Markkanen (conditioning) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Clippers.

Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Expected to play Tuesday
Markkanen (conditioning) is expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Clippers, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Markkanen is on the precipice of returning from a seven-game absence with an illness. Either Cody Williams or Svi Mykhailiuk will likely move into the second unit once Markkanen returns to the lineup. The star forward has averaged 28.8 points, 8.4 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.7 steals in 35.9 minutes per contest in his last 10 games.

Markkanen (conditioning) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Heat.
Markkanen will miss a seventh consecutive game while recovering from an illness, though recently he has been listed on the injury report as "return-to-competition conditioning."

Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Questionable to face Miami
Markkanen is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Heat due to return-to-competition reconditioning.
Markkanen has missed Utah's last six outings due to an illness and reconditioning, though the questionable tag is a step in the right direction for the star forward. If the 28-year-old remains on the shelf Saturday, Kyle Anderson, Kyle Filipowski and Cody Williams would be candidates for increased minutes.

Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Won't play Thursday
Markkanen has been ruled out for Thursday's game versus the Spurs due to return-to-competition reconditioning.
Markkanen will miss his sixth straight game Thursday, but it's worth noting that he's no longer listed as out with an illness, but rather as "return-to-competition reconditioning." That could be considered a sign of progress, although it's not great that he continues to get ruled out a day in advance of tipoff. For now, Markkanen should be considered questionable for Saturday's game versus Miami.

Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Won't play Monday
Markkanen (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Spurs.
Markkanen is slated to miss a fourth consecutive game while battling through an illness, though he could return for the second leg of the Jazz's back-to-back set Tuesday against the Timberwolves. Rookie first-rounder Ace Bailey should remain in the starting lineup for as long as Markkanen is sidelined.

Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Out with illness
Markkanen is out for Wednesday's game against the Bulls due to an illness.
The star forward has a short turnaround if he wants to suit up in time for Thursday's matchup in Dallas. With Markkanen taking a seat Wednesday, Brice Sensabaugh appears to be worth streaming in the majority of fantasy leagues. Kyle Filipowski could also see an uptick in minutes, given that Kevin Love is resting.
