Estadísticas de jugadores y previa: Utah Jazz contra Atlanta Hawks (17 mar 2027)

Injury/Illness - Left Foot Fracture (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-11-13): Gueye (foot) is ready to begin on-court activities and will be re-evaluated in four weeks, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. The team stated in July that the big man would remain sidelined for the next 3-to-4 months after undergoing surgery to repair a fractured left foot, and he's continuing to make progress in his rehab. A timetable for Gueye's 2026-27 debut has yet to be established, thought a date could come into focus following his next evaluation in mid-December.

Injury/Illness - Lumbar Spasm (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-11-12): Flemings (back) is questionable for Friday's game against the Bulls. Flemings is in danger of missing his second contest of the year due to a lumbar spasm. The rookie first-rounder recently leapfrogged CJ McCollum for a starting spot, but the latter would likely rejoin the first unit if the former sits out Friday.

Injury/Illness - Face Mask (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI).

Injury/Illness - Left Great Toe Hyperextension (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-11-12): Newell (toe) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Chicago. Newell will miss a fourth consecutive contest due to a left great toe hyperextension. He can be considered week-to-week until the Hawks provide an update on his progress.

G League - Two-Way (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI).

Injury/Illness - Left Knee Inflammation; Non-Surgical Procedure (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-11-12): Gilbert (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bulls. Gilbert continues to deal with lingering knee inflammation and is without a timetable to return. He can be considered week-to-week until the Hawks offer an update on his progress.

Injury/Illness - Right ACL Tear (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI). Prior reporting (2026-09-21): Veesaar was diagnosed with a torn right ACL and is expected to miss the 2026-27 season, the Hawks announced Monday. Veesaar suffered the injury during a workout on Sept. 15, and an MRI confirmed the diagnosis. The No. 52 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, Veesaar was expected to spend a lot of time with Atlanta's G League affiliate this season. Previously reported out for season.

G League - Two-Way (2026-11-13, ATL@CHI).

Injury/Illness - Right Hand Fracture (2026-11-13, UTA@HOU). Prior reporting (2026-11-11): Markkanen has been diagnosed with a non-displaced fracture in his right hand and will be sidelined for at least one month, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. Markkanen has missed two straight games due to what was being described as a right wrist sprain, but it appears the issue was much worse than initially thought. The talented big man now joins Jusuf Nurkic (foot) and Jaren Jackson (knee) on Utah's long-term injury list, while Keyonte George's status moving forward is unclear while dealing with an ankle sprain. Given all of the injuries, Ace Bailey and Darryn Peterson will have to lead the offense, while Isaiah Collier, Brice Sensabaugh, Svi Mykhailiuk, Josh Okogie and Josh Green are candidates for increased roles.

Injury/Illness - Right MCL Tear (2026-11-13, UTA@HOU). Prior reporting (2026-10-27): Jackson has been diagnosed with a torn MCL in his right knee and will be sidelined for 6-to-8 weeks, per Shams Charania of ESPN. Jackson sustained the injury early in Monday's loss to Memphis, and he's now expected to miss at least a month and a half of action. The star big man's absence creates a major void in the Utah lineup, one that is likely to be filled by a timeshare of Jaxson Hayes (shoulder), Kyle Filipowski and Mo Bamba. The Jazz could also shift Lauri Markkanen (wrist), when healthy, to the center spot at times, perhaps allowing Ace Bailey to spend more time at power forward.

Injury/Illness - Right 2nd Plantar Plate Tear (2026-11-13, UTA@HOU). Prior reporting (2026-11-06): Nurkic (toe) has begun participating in on-court activities as he continues recovering from a right foot injury sustained during an Oct. 4 preseason game against Denver. He will be re-evaluated in two weeks, the Jazz announced Friday. Nurkic is progressing in his recovery, but the two-week re-evaluation timeline indicates he remains some distance from returning to game action. His absence should continue to create opportunities in Utah's frontcourt, with Jaxson Hayes and Mo Bamba among the players positioned to benefit from additional playing time. Nurkic's next evaluation will provide a clearer picture of his potential return date.

G League - Two-Way (2026-11-13, UTA@HOU).

G League - Two-Way (2026-11-13, UTA@HOU).

G League - Two-Way (2026-11-13, UTA@HOU). Prior reporting (2026-11-12): Alexander won't play Wednesday against the Grizzlies due to a left knee bone bruise. Alexander sat out Friday's preseason finale with what the team initially described as a left knee injury, but we now know he's dealing with a bone bruise. Don't be surprised if Alexander misses Friday's game against the Pelicans as well.
