Talen Horton-Tucker Fantasy Stats

According to NBA insider Shams Charania, shooting guard Talen Horton-Tucker has signed a partially guaranteed deal with his hometown Chicago Bulls. The 23-year-old was available as a free agent after playing out a pair of campaigns in Utah. Horton-Tucker had a mixed season in 2023-24 and even spent some time out of the rotation, but he put up decent numbers while with the team. The former Laker posted 10.5 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 3.6 assists in 20.0 minutes across two seasons. However, Horton-Tucker shot below 40 percent from the field last term, and he certainly has to improve his efficiency to earn a team's trust.

Utah Jazz guards Keyonte George (foot) and Talen Horton-Tucker (foot) will both be active on Tuesday against the San Antonio Spurs, with the two playmakers overcoming bouts of left foot inflammation. George will dress for the first time since Dec. 13 after missing six games, but it remains to be seen if he will start. Collin Sexton has fared extremely well of late, averaging 22.9 points, 4.1 assists, and 2.0 threes over his past eight contests. Horton-Tucker missed Utah's last two games but was gaining momentum with double-digit points for eight straight games plus a 19-point, 11-assist double-double last Wednesday. Though Tuesday's game holds the highest implied point total (242.5) of the nine-game slate, the Jazz backcourt has suddenly become crowded, with Jordan Clarkson also returning from a six-game hiatus on Saturday. The DFS value is difficult to parse, but players should want some form of exposure to this attractive game environment.

Utah Jazz guard/forward Talen Horton-Tucker (foot) won't play on the second leg of a back-to-back set for Thursday's matchup against the Detroit Pistons due soreness in his left foot. It's tough timing for fantasy managers, as Horton-Tucker was really starting to pick up some steam of late with Jordan Clarkson (thigh) and Keyonte George (foot) not around. The versatile Horton-Tucker has reached double figures in scoring for eight consecutive contests and put up a 19-point, 11-assist double-double on Wednesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. THT will aim to return on Saturday against the Toronto Raptors. Collin Sexton has poured in at least 20 points in six straight games and should continue to have the green light offensively, while Kris Dunn might be in for an uptick in playing time on Thursday against the dismal Pistons.

Utah Jazz guard Talen Horton-Tucker (illness) has been upgraded to probable ahead of Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He was questionable heading into this game due to a non-COVID related illness. Despite that, it appears Horton-Tucker is going to be fine to play. He figures to resume his role as the starter alongside Collin Sexton in the backcourt. Fantasy managers who have him rostered can get him back in their lineups ahead of Saturday's game.

Utah Jazz guard/forward Talen Horton-Tucker has exercised his $11 million player option for the 2023-24 campaign. The 22-year-old has found himself in a good situation in Utah and is staying for a second season. Horton-Tucker gained a lot of steam in fantasy hoops last term, averaging 18.3 points, 5.2 rebounds and 5.9 assists as he closed the campaign as a starter. He tallied 10.7 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists for the season overall. The Chicago-born player has shown good upside, and he definitely has more room for improvement after struggling with efficiency in 2022-23.

Utah Jazz guard/forward Talen Horton-Tucker (ankle) is out on Saturday versus Denver. He didn't suit up on Thursday against OKC because of left ankle soreness, and barring a miracle, he'll likely sit for Sunday's meeting with the Lakers. With Collin Sexton (hamstring) also out, Ochai Agbaji should remain in the starting lineup. The rookie has averaged 12.9 points and 2.5 rebounds in 20 starts this season, so he has upside for DFS managers on Saturday afternoon.

Utah Jazz guard/forward Talen Horton-Tucker led the team with 28 points and had eight rebounds and seven assists in Friday's 122-114 loss to Boston. His shooting was slightly off, as Horton-Tucker finished 9-for-21 from the field, but he was very active in getting to the free-throw line and it eventually helped him to post his third-highest scoring numbers of the season. Horton-Tucker's efficiency has plummeted in recent games, but he's been of great help to fantasy managers over the final stretch of the season and averaged 18.1 points, 5.1 rebounds and 6.1 assists in March.

Utah Jazz guard Talen Horton-Tucker posted one of the best games of his career on Wednesday as the team took down the San Antonio Spurs by a score of 128-117. The 22-year-old posted a career-high 41 points to go along with four rebounds, five assists, and one steal while shooting 15-for-25 overall and 6-for-11 from beyond the arc. Without three of their best players, Horton-Tucker sees a lot more time than usual. Especially with Lauri Markkanen (hand) sidelined, fantasy managers should take a chance on streaming Horton-Tucker over these last couple of weeks.

Utah Jazz guard/forward Talen Horton-Tucker had a very impressive performance against the Hornets on Saturday, leading the team to a 119-111 victory with a season-high 37 points, eight rebounds and 10 assists. He shot 14-for-24 from the field and was 2-for-5 with his attempts from outside. Injuries have decimated the Jazz backcourt and it's given Horton-Tucker an opportunity to showcase his full potential. He has made seven consecutive starts, scoring at least 20 points in each of the last three. For the season overall, the 22-year-old has averaged 17.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 1.1 blocks in nine starts.

Utah Jazz guard Talen Horton-Tucker (ankle) won't suit up for Sunday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. It's the second night of a back-to-back set, so the Jazz have decided to rest their young guard. His absence should open up more playing time for Malik Beasley, Ochai Agbaji and Nickeil Alexander-Walker. On Saturday, Agbaji dropped 19 points with four triples, but he's not exactly a consistent option. Between the three players, Beasley is the more reliable fantasy option.
