Fantasy Impact: Markkanen is managing a hand injury that has given him some problems over the past week or so. He will miss Wednesday night's game because of it, and his next chance to play will come on Friday against the Celtics. Kelly Olynyk should be in line for more work while the star forward is out against the Spurs.

Fantasy Impact: Sexton has been out for the majority of the season while nursing a hamstring injury, and he's set to miss another game because of it on Wednesday. His chances of making a return dwindle lower by the day, and Talen Horton-Tucker will continue to get more work while Sexton remains out.

Rudy Gay (back) is still out for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Gay has been out for multiple weeks while nursing a back injury, and he's set to miss another game on Wednesday. It's unclear when he will be back, and the team is optimistic that will be sooner rather than later. Kelly Olynyk should continue to pick up more minutes for however long the veteran remains out moving forward.

Walker Kessler collected 31 points (14-16 FG, 3-6 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 34 minutes of Saturday's 121-113 loss to the Kings.

Fantasy Impact: Kessler feasted with Lauri Markkanen sitting out on Saturday, setting his season-high in points and his sixth double-double of the month. The center has been one of the better shot blockers in the league this year, but he hasn't been able to score consistently, so don't expect more games like this in the final stretch. However, he has double-double potential every time he touches the floor.

Kelly Olynyk tallied 17 points (7-12 FG, 0-2 3PT, 3-3 FT), 10 assists, eight rebounds and one steal in 32 minutes of Saturday's 121-113 loss to the Kings.

Fantasy Impact: Olynyk once again stepped up with Lauri Markkanen sidelined, as that seems to be when Olynyk has his best performances. The 31-year-old has been solid this month, averaging 13.2 points and 7.6 rebounds per game as an everyday starter. His fantasy upside for the final few games of the season isn't high, but he has the capability to put up a double-double whenever he takes the floor.

Jordan Clarkson (finger) is unavailable to play in Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: A finger injury has left Clarkson sidelined for a few games, and his absence will extend through Saturday at the very least. His return doesn't seem set to happen anytime in the near future, and Talen Horton-Tucker should continue to get additional run for however long the veteran remains out.

The Utah Jazz signed Kris Dunn to a 10-day contract on Tuesday. (Source: Shams Charania on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Dunn, a former No. 5 pick in the NBA Draft, has been playing in the G-League. He'll provide some depth in Utah's front court, but remains off the fantasy radar.

Russell Westbrook III plans to sign with the Los Angeles Clippers once his contract buyout is complete. He joins a talented roster headlined by Kawhi Leonard and former teammate Paul George. (Source: ESPN)

Fantasy Impact: The Clippers traded away the oft-injured John Wall at the deadline and were in need of a point guard. Westbrook gives them a capable guard who has the tools to run an offense, especially if he is tasked to take charge of the second unit when Leonard and George sit. According to ESPN, Westbrook has been promised a specific role built around his skill set. What is not known is exactly how many minutes he will play or how big of a role he will have. We will have to wait until after the All-Star Break is over to truly find out what his role will be on his new team.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker has been traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves in a three-team deal that also includes the Lakers. (Source: Adrian Wojnarowski on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Alexander-Walker will head to Minnesota along with Mike Conley. The Lakers also received D'Angelo Russell, Jarred Vanderbilt, and Malik Beasley while the Jazz receive Russell Westbrook, Juan Toscano-Anderson, Damian Jones, and a first-round pick. It's unclear how he will fit into the rotation in Minnesota, but he could be looking at a more substantial role than he has had in Utah

Fantasy Impact: Conley will head to Minnesota along with Nickeil Alexander-Walker. The Lakers also received D'Angelo Russell, Jarred Vanderbilt, and Malik Beasley while the Jazz receive Russell Westbrook, Juan Toscano-Anderson, Damian Jones, and a first-round pick. It's unclear how Conley will fit into the rotation in Minnesota, but he should have a similar role that he has had this season so far.

Fantasy Impact: Beasley will go to the Lakers along with D'Angelo Russell and Jarred Vanderbilt. The Jazz will receive Russell Westbrook, Juan Toscano-Anderson, and a first-round pick while the Timberwolves get Mike Conley and Nickeil Alexander-Walker. This is likely going to have a negative impact on his fantasy value, but we will have to see how he fits into the rotation in the coming weeks

Fantasy Impact: Vanderbilt will go to the Lakers along with D'Angelo Russell and Malik Beasley. The Jazz will receive Russell Westbrook, Juan Toscano-Anderson, and a first-round pick while the Timberwolves get Mike Conley and Nickeil Alexander-Walker. This is likely going to have a negative impact on his fantasy value, but we will have to see how he fits into the rotation in the coming weeks.

Talen Horton-Tucker is questionable for Friday's game vs the Magic due to a right ankle sprain. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Horton-Tucker has missed the last two games due to his ankle and is in danger of sitting out again. A decision will come closer to game time, but Ochai Agbaji may see additional minutes if Horton-Tucker is out.

Micah Potter will be available Tuesday for Utah’s game against the Cavaliers after being called up from the G League’s Salt Lake City Stars. (Source: Andy Larsen via Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: The Jazz are without two of their big men in Kelly Olynyk (ankle) and Udoka Azubuike (COVID-19), so Potter being called up was likely to provide the team with some depth in the frontcourt. However, he’s unlikely to factor into the rotation or have any impact fantasy wise.

Leandro Bolmaro has been ruled out of Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers due to a non-COVID illness. (Source: Andy Larsen via Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Balmaro was initially listed as questionable but has since been downgraded to out. While he likely won’t have a fantasy impact, his next chance to lace ‘em up will be Friday, when the Jazz take on the Magic.

Udoka Azubuike has been ruled out for Tuesday's matchup against the Cavaliers after entering COVID-19 health and safety protocols. (Source: Andy Larsen via Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Azubuike will be forced to miss at least one game with the possibility of being sidelined for longer. However, the backup big man hasn't made an appearance for the Jazz since late December, so his absence won't have any effect on their rotation.

Johnny Juzang will be available to play in Tuesday’s matchup against the Cavaliers. (Source: Andy Larsen via Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Juzang has been sidelined since late November with a sprained right wrist but has been upgraded to active for Tuesday’s game against the Cavs. However, his return will likely have no fantasy impact.

Simone Fontecchio (ankle) is unavailable to play in Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Fontecchio has missed a few games due to an ankle injury, and he will be absent again on Thursday. It's unclear when he will be back, but he may still have to miss a good chunk of time. He hasn't had a big role for Utah this year, and his absence shouldn't have a big impact on the Jazz's rotation.
