Kennedy Chandler scored 31 points (11-18 FG, 2-3 3PT, 7-8 FT) to go along with seven rebounds, eight assists and two steals in the 156-137 loss for the Jazz against the Pelicans.
Fantasy Impact
Despite coming off the bench, Chandler still managed to play 43 minutes and took full advantage of the opportunity. He'll remain on a 10-day contract through the end of the season.
With Keyonte George, Isaiah Collier, and EJ Harkless all sidelined, Chandler drew his first start since joining Utah and logged 40 minutes — finishing with 12 points (4-of-16 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), five assists, four rebounds, two three-pointers, one block, and five turnovers in the loss to the Cavaliers.
Fantasy Impact
The 25 percent shooting and five turnovers were hard to overlook, but 40 minutes in a starting role with Utah this shorthanded makes him worth monitoring if those absences continue. Bez Mbeng contributed five points, four assists, and three steals in 29 minutes off the bench.
Kennedy Chandler scored 16 points (7-10 FG, 2-4 3PT, 0-2 FT) and added seven assists in Utah's 135-129 loss to Denver on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
Chandler signed a 10-day contract with the Jazz a week ago and he has made the most of his opportunity. He is averaging 15.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 7.0 assists in the four games he has played and has reached double figures in scoring in each contest. It's likely he'll continue to get significant minutes while he's producing and with Utah out of the playoff picture.
Kennedy Chandler scored a career-high 19 points (5-13 FG, 2-4 3PT, 7-7 FT), grabbed five rebounds, and had four assists in his season debut on Saturday in Utah's loss to Philadelphia.
Fantasy Impact
Chandler had not played in an NBA game since April 7, 2023, and recorded his first-ever double-digit scoring performance on Saturday. He played 36 games for the Grizzlies back in 2022-23 and averaged 2.2 points, 1.1 rebounds, and 1.6 assists. Utah had only eight players play on Saturday, so it remains to be seen if this was a career night for Chandler or if he will see extensive time down the stretch for the Jazz.
The Jazz signed Kennedy Chandler to a 10-day contract.
Fantasy Impact
Chandler earns an opportunity following a strong showing in the G League this season. He'll have a chance to see some run on a tanking Utah Jazz team.
