Jazz's Kyle Filipowski: Pulls down career-high 17 rebounds
Rotowire
Filipowski chipped in 10 points (4-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 17 rebounds and one assist over 38 minutes during Monday's 123-119 overtime loss to the Pelicans.
Filipowski pulled down a career-high 17 rebounds for his first double-double of the campaign. The Jazz have a lengthy injury report these days, and the team could be sellers at the deadline. Filipowski is someone to monitor in fantasy formats if he can string together a few good showings. He's averaging 6.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.7 three-pointers in 21.7 minutes across 10 January outings.

Jazz's Kyle Filipowski: Starting Monday
Rotowire
Filipowski will start for the Jazz in Monday's game against the Pelicans.
With Lauri Markkanen (back) and John Collins (hip) out, Filipowski will have another chance to take advantage of starting minutes. In the eight games he did start this season, Filipowski has averaged 8.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 0.8 steals across 22.5 minutes.

Jazz's Kyle Filipowski: Coming off bench
Rotowire
Filipowski isn't starting Monday's game against the Pelicans, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Filipowski was initially reported to be starting at power forward, but it was Cody Williams who took the court to open the matchup. Filipowski will be deployed off the bench after an apparent miscommunication by the club.
Filipowski finished with 12 points (4-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 21 minutes during Sunday's 112-111 overtime win over the Nets.
Several rookies stood out for the shorthanded Jazz in this tight OT win over the Nets, and Filipowski made his presence felt off the bench with a solid showing on both ends of the court. Even though he's not expected to crack the starting unit any time soon, the former Duke standout could be worth a look as a streaming option in deep formats if he's able to keep this up for the upcoming stretch of games. However, that's likely dependent on whether or not Lauri Markkanen (back), John Collins (hip) and or Walker Kessler (rest) return to action soon.

Jazz's Kyle Filipowski: Available Sunday
Rotowire
Filipowski (ankle) will play Sunday against the Nets.
Filipowski will be able to play through an ankle sprain he presumably suffered during Saturday's loss to the Spurs. With Lauri Markkanen (back) out of the lineup, Filipowski could be called upon more often offensively.

Jazz's Kyle Filipowski: Iffy Sunday
Rotowire
Filipowski (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Nets.
Filipowski is in jeopardy of missing his first game since Dec. 21 due to a right ankle sprain that he presumably sustained during Saturday's loss to the Suns. The rookie has seen increased run of late, and he has averaged 5.4 points and 6.2 rebounds across 22.8 minutes per contest in his last five appearances. With Filipowski and Lauri Markkanen (back) at risk of joining John Collins (hip) and Walker Kessler (rest) on the sideline, Micah Potter and Cody Williams are candidates for increased roles.

Jazz's Kyle Filipowski: Season-high 11 boards
Rotowire
Filipowski amassed four points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals over 23 minutes during Thursday's 97-92 loss to Miami.
Filipowski played at least 20 minutes for the third time over his last four appearances. While he struggled to make his mark offensively again, Filipowski grabbed double-digit rebounds for the first time this season. As long as John Collins (hip) and Brice Sensabaugh (illness) continue to miss games, Filipowski has a clear path to consistent minutes.

Jazz's Kyle Filipowski: Refined role continues in loss
Rotowire
Filipowski contributed two points (1-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists and one block over 11 minutes during Wednesday's 119-103 loss to the Knicks.
Filipowski played fewer than 15 minutes for the fourth time in the past five games, during which time he has scored a total of just 11 points. It has been rough sledding for the rookie, especially after he was thrust into a sizeable role earlier in the season. There is a realistic chance he once again logs meaningful minutes as the season moves forward.

Rotowire
The Jazz recalled Filipowski from the G League's Salt Lake City Stars ahead of Monday's game against the Cavaliers.
With John Collins (hip) questionable for Monday's contest, Filipowski will suit up and will likely be part of the rotation after a recent stint in the G League. During his latest appearance for the Stars in Sunday's 122-120 win over the Memphis Hustle, Filipowski recorded 15 points (5-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and one block across 18 minutes.

Jazz's Kyle Filipowski: Questionable to play Sunday
Rotowire
Filipowski (lower leg) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Kings.
Filipowski has missed the Jazz's last seven games due to a left lower leg injury, though he did play for the G League Salt Lake City Stars on Friday against the South Bay Lakers, finishing with 10 points, 10 rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block over 24 minutes. That should mean he is trending towards making his NBA return Sunday, but he might be on a minutes restriction if he does play. In his 11 games with Utah before his injury (including eight starts), Filipowski averaged 8.2 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists over 21.1 minutes per game.
