Jazz's Brice Sensabaugh: Role continues to increase in loss
Rotowire
Sensabaugh had 22 points (8-14 FG, 6-9 3Pt), seven rebounds, four assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Tuesday's 129-113 loss to the Cavaliers.
We've likely seen the last of Lauri Markkanen (shoulder) this season, giving Sensabaugh all he can handle as his rookie season draws to a close. The Ohio State product scored 22 points for the second consecutive game, matching the season-high total he accumulated against the Kings on Sunday.
Sensabaugh provided 22 points (6-14 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals across 34 minutes during Sunday's 127-106 loss to Sacramento.
With the season coming to a close, the Jazz will dive deep into their roster to see what they have, and Sensabaugh has benefited. The 2023 first-round pick has played with the first unit several times over the past couple of weeks thanks to Lauri Markkanen's (shoulder) absence, and the former seems to have a secure future in Utah's plans. Markkanen appears to be shut down for the season, so we will likely see some respectable stat lines from Sensabaugh as the season winds down.

Lauri Markkanen's (quad) return following a six-game absence will likely resort Sensabaugh to a 15-to-20 minute role.

Jazz's Brice Sensabaugh: Thrives in first career start
Rotowire
Sensabaugh had 15 points (5-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 12 rebounds and one assist over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 119-117 loss to the Bulls.
Sensabaugh made the first start of his career due to the absence of Taylor Hendricks (toe), and even though one game is not enough to draw any conclusions, there's no question he looked impressive on both ends of the court. Sensabaugh posted season-high marks in both points and rebounds, and he might remain in the first unit if Hendricks is unable to recover ahead of Saturday's matchup against the Nuggets.

Jazz's Brice Sensabaugh: Questionable for Monday
Rotowire
Sensabaugh (hip) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Warriors.
Sensabaugh missed Thursday's 129-115 loss to the Suns with the same injury and could be at risk of being sidelined again Monday. Prior to sustaining the hip issue, Sensabaugh hadn't been included in Utah's rotation, but he may have a clearer path to playing time in the second half of the season after the Jazz shipped out two rotation players (Kelly Olynyk and Ochai Agbaji) at the trade deadline and didn't take any back in return.

Rotowire
Coach Will Hardy said Friday that Sensabaugh (knee) is healthy and ready for training camp, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

While he was unable to participate in Summer League action, he's healthy for the start of training camp this year. The 19-year-old will attempt to make an impact for the Jazz during preseason play but seems unlikely to have a significant role for the team to begin the regular season.
