Walker Kessler DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (rest) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Kessler was one rebound shy of a double-double during Monday's contest. It's a bit odd to see the Jazz resting Kessler here, but the Jazz aren't really playing for anything at this point in the season. Kyle Filipowski figures to see an increased role and is worth streaming while the Jazz are banged up.

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Kessler is still recovering from an illness that forced him to miss Monday's contest. The Jazz are likely going to wait and see how he feels on Wednesday before making a final decision. Both John Collins (back) and Lauri Markkanen (back) are still sidelined, so the Jazz could be shorthanded for this game. If Kessler sits again, Brice Sensabaugh and Kyle Filipowski figure to have bigger roles in the rotation. Right now, both players are worth looking at as streaming options with the Jazz banged up.

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. This comes as no surprise, as Utah initially listed Kessler as questionable for the contest due to an illness. John Collins (back) is also out for the contest, meaning we should see Kyle Filipowski and Micah Potter handle the minutes at center. Filipowski will likely slide into the starting unit, where he has seen moderate success this season. In 10 starts, the Duke product has averaged 9.7 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 2.3 assists.
