John Collins News
Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (back) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against the Clippers. He will miss a seventh consecutive game with back spasms. Omer Yurtseven has taken over as Utah's starting center. He's averaging 8.6 points and 8.2 rebounds in the role. The Clippers give up the eighth-most rebounds in the league to opposing centers, giving Yurtseven a good opportunity to battle for a double-double in Friday's matchup.
Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (back) is officially ruled out for Thursday's game against the Houston Rockets. Collins will miss his sixth consecutive game after back spasms started limiting his availability. Utah falling out of playoff contention led them to play it safe with Collins and other banged-up players sitting out. Brice Sensabaugh has benefited the most from Collins' absence, with averages of 13.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 2.6 assists per game in the previous five games. Luka Samanic, Taylor Hendricks, and Omer Yurtseven all have increased fantasy value with Collins and multiple other frontcourt players out on Thursday.
Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (back) will skip a fifth consecutive game on Tuesday versus Denver. He's battling back spasms and will get his next chance to return on Thursday against Houston. Utah is also currently without the services of Walker Kessler (nose), which has given Omer Yurtseven an opportunity to make back-to-back starts. Meanwhile, Darius Bazley and Johnny Juzang have gotten heavy usage off the bench. All three could offer fantasy value on Tuesday, although it's a very tough matchup for the struggling Jazz squad.
Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (back) won't play on Sunday against Golden State. The Jazz are limping to the end of the regular season, and, likely, Collins may not see the floor for the rest of the 2023-24 campaign. With Walker Kessler (nose) also out, Omer Yurtseven, coming off a 12-point, seven-rebound effort in Utah's previous game against the Clippers, will remain an enticing DFS option.
