NBC SportsLauri Markkanen had 21 points (8-of-21 FGs), seven rebounds, two blocks and three 3-pointers in the Jazz' 105-94 victory over the Nets on Saturday.

In what was a relatively low-scoring game, Markkanen's 21 points were a game-high. He got there on volume as he made just 8-of-21 field goal attempts and 3-of-13 attempts from behind the 3-point line. Markkanen hasn't lived up to preseason expectations for fantasy managers, but he can still put up at least solid numbers with this level of volume.

NBC SportsCollin Sexton, Svi Mykhailiuk, Lauri Markkanen, John Collins, and Walker Kessler will start Saturday's game against the Nets.

The Jazz are without Keyonte George, who injured his ankle during Thursday's win over the Pistons. Mykhailiuk will fill the resulting void in the starting lineup, but he offers limited streaming value. Sexton's fantasy value should increase because he is the starting point guard.

NBC SportsLauri Markkanen (low back injury management) has been upgraded to available for Friday's game against Phoenix.

Markkanen was upgraded to probable earlier in the day, so his official availability doesn't come as a surprise. He finished with just eight points in Sunday's blowout loss to the Kings and will look to bounce back in this game.

NBC SportsLauri Markkanen (low back injury management) and Jordan Clarkson (left plantar fasciitis) are probable for Friday's matchup with Phoenix.

Markkanen appeared in Utah's last game, though he's missed two of the last six. Clarkson has missed seven in a row, but he's poised to return. Markkanen should be expected to handle a typical workload, though Clarkson could see a lighter workload after such a long layoff.
