Tyler Herro Out For Fourth Straight Game

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (knee) is out for Saturday's matchup versus the Utah Jazz. Herro will miss his fourth game in a row and a favorable draw due to a hyperextended left knee. The Jazz show the sixth-worst defensive efficiency rating (116.4) and opponent points per game (120.4) in the NBA and are allowing the most DraftKings points to opposing point guards. Herro is notching 18.3 points, 4.9 assists, 4.8 rebounds, and 3.2 three-pointers on 39.6% shooting from downtown over his last 12 games and looks to return on Tuesday against the Detroit Pistons. Terry Rozier is a strong fantasy bet in both DFS and season-long leagues on Saturday. Over Duncan Robinson's last seven games (five starts), he is collecting 15.4 points, 4.1 assists, 3.6 threes while shooting 48.1% from long range, and 1.1 steals per game. Utah ranks last in the Western Conference with 14.4 three-pointers allowed per game.

Walker Kessler Out Against Heat

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (foot) is out for Saturday's tilt against the Miami Heat. A sprained right foot cost Kessler Thursday's loss to the Orlando Magic, and the second-year big man won't play on Saturday, either. Over his last 13 contests (four starts), Kessler is playing only 21.6 minutes per game but is offering 8.8 points on 66.2% shooting from the floor, 7.2 rebounds, and 2.8 blocks per game, which is top-50 material in nine-category fantasy leagues. The 22-year-old defensive anchor aims to return on Monday versus the Washington Wizards. With Jordan Clarkson (illness) joining Kessler on the sidelines, the Jazz will lean on Lauri Markkanen and John Collins in the starting frontcourt, and Taylor Hendricks will have more leeway to build on his recent rise to the first unit. Over his last four games as a starter, Hendricks is averaging 9.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 1.5 threes in 26.9 minutes.

Jordan Clarkson Downgraded To Out

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (illness) has been downgraded from questionable to out for Saturday's meeting with the Miami Heat. A late addition to the injury report, Clarkson won't be able to overcome an illness in time to suit up. Over Clarkson's last seven showings, the veteran combo guard is gathering 14.3 points, 6.3 assists, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.9 treys in 32.6 minutes per game, and his next chance to return arrives in Monday's tilt versus the Washington Wizards. With Walker Kessler (foot) also out, Kris Dunn has a chance at extended run as Utah's clear sixth man off the bench. Dunn is facing a tough assignment and is only averaging 6.7 points, 2.3 dimes, 2.3 boards, and 1.6 steals in 20.1 minutes across his latest seven games, though. Miami runs the third-slowest offense in terms of pace (99.1) and ranks seventh in defensive efficiency (110.3), so this isn't the most appealing setup from a fantasy perspective.

Cam Reddish Probable For Saturday's Matchup

Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Cam Reddish (ankle) carries a probable tag ahead of Saturday's big matchup against Denver. Following a lengthy absence with an ankle injury, the 24-year-old has played in back-to-back games and looks ready for more action on Saturday. Reddish logged 20 minutes against the Clippers on Thursday as he returned from a 14-game absence but was limited to only four minutes a day later against the Wizards. According to Lakers head coach Darvin Ham, Reddish was experiencing a bit of soreness in his ankle following Wednesday's game and that was the reason why he only had a handful of minutes on Thursday. We'll likely see him logging his normal minutes again on Saturday, but Reddish's current role gives him very little fantasy value.

Walker Kessler Listed As Questionable Saturday

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (foot) is considered questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Heat. He was out of the lineup for the ninth time this season on Thursday against Orlando, having sustained a right foot sprain. Luka Samanic broke into the rotation without Kessler on Thursday, posting eight points and four rebounds in 12 minutes, but he's far from a good fantasy option. Saturday's matchup, in general, is an ugly one for the Jazz bigs, as Miami has Bam Adebayo, a four-time All-Defensive Second Team member, roaming around. With him guarding the paint, the Heat have limited centers to a league-low 19.0 points per 48 minutes this season.
