Walker Kessler Latest News
Double-doubles in loss
Kessler totaled 19 points (8-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists and one block across 34 minutes during Monday's 123-119 overtime loss to New Orleans. Kessler recorded his 17th double-double of the season. He's been the second most valuable fantasy producer in nine-category formats for the Jazz, posting averages of 11.1 points, 11.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.5 blocks in 29.8 minutes per contest.
Available vs. New Orleans
Kessler (rest) is available for Monday's game against the Pelicans, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports. Kessler received rest in Friday's loss to the Pelicans, but he'll be available for Monday's rematch. His return will give the Jazz a much-needed boost on both ends of the court, and it'll likely push Drew Eubanks back to the bench.
Remains out Friday
Kessler (rest) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Pelicans, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports. After returning to the floor for Wednesday's loss against the Hornets, Kessler will rest Friday against the Pelicans. Drew Eubanks could be in line to start in place of the talented big man for Utah.
Good to go against Charlotte
Kessler (rest) isn't on the injury report for Wednesday's game versus the Hornets. Kessler will return to action Wednesday after sitting out Utah's previous contest for rest purposes. The 23-year-old center should reclaim his starting spot from Drew Eubanks against Charlotte.
Resting Sunday
Kessler has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Nets due to rest. Kessler will take a seat for the second night of a back-to-back set after posting 16 points, 13 rebounds and two blocks in 31 minutes during Saturday's loss to Phoenix. He should return to action against the Hornets on Wednesday, while Kyle Filipowski (ankle), Drew Eubanks and Micah Potter are all candidates for increased roles Sunday.
Posts 16th double-double of season
Kessler accumulated 16 points (7-9 FG, 2-3 FT), 13 rebounds and two blocks across 31 minutes during Saturday's 114-106 loss to the Suns. Kessler turned in his 16th double-double of the campaign Saturday, racking up double-digit boards for the ninth time in his last 10 games. During this time, the 23-year-old big man is averaging 13.5 rebounds, 11.3 points and 1.7 blocks in 31.3 minutes while shooting 71.6 percent from the field. With John Collins still dealing with a hip injury, Kessler should continue dominating on the glass as long as the former remains sidelined. Kessler remains one of fantasy's best in 2024-25 when it comes to producing in the swats, boards and field-goal percentage categories.
Strong two-way effort
Kessler racked up nine points (4-5 FG, 1-2 FT), 15 rebounds and two blocks over 30 minutes during Thursday's 97-92 loss to the Heat. Kessler finished just one point away from recording what would've been his fourth consecutive double-double. Despite not being a go-to option on offense, Kessler remains a reliable two-way option for the Jazz, particularly due to his efficiency as a scoring weapon. Over his last 10 games, Kessler averaged 10.2 points and 12.9 rebounds per game while shooting 70.5 percent from the floor.
Posts another double-double
Kessler totaled 21 points (8-11 FG, 5-6 FT), 10 rebounds, three blocks and one steal in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 124-121 loss to the Hawks. Kessler had another solid two-way display Tuesday, recording a third straight double-double and reaching that feat for the fifth time over his last six contests. The big man remains one of the best two-way centers in the NBA, and he's averaging 12.3 points, 12.5 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game over that six-game stretch.
Pulls down 17 boards
Kessler provided 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-2 FT), 17 rebounds, two assists and one block in 29 minutes during Sunday's 105-92 win over the Magic. Kessler recorded a double-double for the fourth time across his last five outings, and the big man continues to be among the most productive two-way interior presences in the league. Even though his scoring numbers remain subpar, as he hasn't reached the 15-point mark since Dec. 13, he should remain valuable in fantasy due to his rebounding and shot-blocking skills. He's averaging 10.6 points, 13.0 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.0 blocks per game over his last five games.
