Lauri Markkanen Fantasy Stats

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen would like to remain with the club. "Definitely," said Markkanen when asked if he wants to stay in Utah. "I love being in Utah." He also won't be phased by anticipated trade rumors this offseason. "We'll see what happens in summer, there's things you can't control, but I love being here and working out with the guys that we have and building this thing." The 27-year-old had a down season from a production standpoint in 2024-25, averaging 19.0 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 34.6% shooting from behind the arc. He was also limited to 47 games. However, with the Jazz finishing the 2024-25 campaign with one of the worst records in the National Basketball Association, it's safe to say he could have played more had the team stayed competitive. No matter where Markkanen ends up next season, he has All-Star potential. Still, he's the best player in Utah, so he'll likely be the most productive by staying with the Jazz. Markkanen agreed to a four-year, $220 million extension last offseason, potentially keeping him on the roster through 2028-29.

He finishes out the 2024-25 campaign with averages of 19.0 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 31.4 minutes per game during 47 appearances.

According to Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune, Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (conditioning) is unavailable for Friday's matchup with the Denver Nuggets. The 27-year-old will miss his sixth consecutive contest for conditioning purposes. Kyle Filipowski, Cody Williams, and Brice Sensabaugh will continue to have extra fantasy value with Markkanen sidelined this evening. Markkanen's next chance to suit up is Monday against the Charlotte Hornets.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (conditioning) will not be available on Thursday against the Houston Rockets. He has recently missed time due to an illness and is now working on his conditioning to return to game shape. Markkanen will be out for a fifth consecutive game. Kyle Filipowski, Cody Williams, and Brice Sensabaugh will continue to have extra fantasy value on Thursday night. The former two have recently been part of the starting unit, although Williams has struggled to make a positive impact, shooting 34.1 percent from the field this month.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (illness) will miss additional time and has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 2023 All-Star will sit out a fourth consecutive game. It's the second straight game he will miss due to an illness. Utah has no interest in winning and will continue to give opportunities to younger players for the remainder of the season. Markkanen's absence opens the door for Kyle Filipowski, Brice Sensabaugh, and Kenyon Martin Jr. to take on larger roles in the rotation. Filipowski stands out as the best fantasy option, as he has joined the starting unit, where he averages 13.8 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 2.6 assists.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (personal) will miss his 24th game of the season on Friday as the team has ruled him out for personal reasons against the Boston Celtics. The youth movement has been in full effect for the Jazz as they try to inch closer to better odds for the number-one draft pick. John Collins (ankle) has also been ruled out of this game, so the starting frontcourt will likely continue to feature Walker Kessler, Kyle Filipowski, and Cody Williams. Filipowski would be the best streaming option as he's enjoyed a great March with averages of 15.8 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game while shooting 52.9% from the floor and 43.1% from three.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (personal) will not play in Wednesday's contest against the Washington Wizards. He is tending to a personal matter and will exit the lineup after playing in each of the last four games. Brice Sensabaugh, Kyle Filipowski, and Micah Potter could all see an uptick in minutes due to Markkanen's absence. Sensabaugh can heat up in a hurry and could do big damage against a team that allows a league-high 120.5 points per game.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (ankle) will take the court on Monday against the Chicago Bulls. He was initially listed as questionable on the injury report after Markkanen played 26 minutes in Sunday's loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Markkanen is ready to make his fourth consecutive appearance on Monday night, but the team has limited his workload lately. Since missing nine games due to a back issue, Markkanen has averaged only 24.3 minutes across three contests, scoring 15.3 points and grabbing 4.0 rebounds.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (back) will return from a nine-game absence on Wednesday versus the Memphis Grizzlies. Markkanen last saw action on Feb. 22 due to a back issue. The Finnish star has remained Utah's top scorer in 2024-25, although it's been a down year for Markkanen, whose numbers have dropped across the board. He is averaging 19.3 points and 6.1 rebounds in 32.1 minutes. With Markkanen returning, Brice Sensabaugh and Cody Williams will probably see reduced playing time.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Markkanen is set to miss his sixth game in a row due to a lingering back issue. It's unclear when Markkanen will return to the court with the Jazz out of the playoff race. Brice Sensabaugh, KJ Martin, and Kyle Filipowski should all see increased roles with the Jazz banged up. Right now, Filipowski is the best streaming choice between the three after a 25-point performance during his last game.
