Eubanks (knee) isn't included on the injury report for Saturday's game against the Mavericks.
EDGE Analysis
Eubanks played just one minute and 30 seconds in Wednesday's 122-103 loss to the Nuggets before leaving early with a bruised left knee, but two days off between games apparently provided sufficient recovery time for him. The Jazz will get Lauri Markkanen (personal) and John Collins (knee) back from one-game absences Saturday but will remain without Kyle Filipowski (lower leg), so Eubanks should be able to stick in the rotation as the primary backup to starting center Walker Kessler.

Eubanks won't return to Wednesday's game against the Nuggets due to a left knee contusion, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Jazz don't need another injury in their frontcourt, so losing Eubanks is huge in a game for which they're already thin in terms of depth. Brice Sensabaugh should see more minutes in the frontcourt with Eubanks out, and this means Walker Kessler is the only healthy true center the Jazz have on their roster for the reminder of the contest.

Eubanks logged five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 17 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 win over the Mavericks.
EDGE Analysis
After playing only three minutes in Tuesday's loss to the Suns, Eubanks saw double-digit playing time for the fifth time this season. The big man was efficient Thursday and provided a solid spark off the bench. Through eight regular-season appearances, the 27-year-old has averaged 4.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists across 13.1 minutes per game.

Eubanks registered six points (2-3 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, two blocks and one assist across 20 minutes during Thursday's 106-88 loss to San Antonio.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old produced in his first game hitting the double-digit mark in minutes, due mainly to a depleted frontcourt missing both Taylor Hendricks (lower leg) and Lauri Markkanen (back). With Hendricks out for the season, it would not come as a surprise to see Eubanks play more minutes in the frontcourt behind Markkanen, Walker Kessler, John Collins and Kyle Filipowski.

Eubanks (illness) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Kings, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
EDGE Analysis
Eubanks has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday despite being a late addition to the injury report with an illness. With Taylor Hendricks (ankle) out for the season, it is possible Eubanks will receive increased playing time as a bench big in Utah's frontcourt.

Eubanks (illness) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Eubanks was a late addition to the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Mavericks and was ultimately ruled out. It appears he's feeling better and has a chance to suit up for the second night of Utah's back-to-back set, but even if he's cleared, he's not guaranteed playing time.

Eubanks (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Mavericks, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Eubanks had initially been listed as questionable with the illness, but his condition evidently didn't improve enough leading up to the 8:30 p.m. ET tipoff for the Jazz to clear him to play. The veteran center hasn't been part of Utah's rotation this season, as John Collins has been serving as the primary backup to starter Walker Kessler.

Eubanks (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Mavericks.
EDGE Analysis
Eubanks has appeared in only one of Utah's two games to open the season, playing a total of six minutes. His status is unlikely to have a big impact on the rotation.

Eubanks and the Jazz agreed to a two-year, $10 million deal Monday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.
EDGE Analysis
With this move, the Jazz have secured more frontcourt depth alongside Walker Kessler, John Collins and Kyle Filipowski. However, it's hard to imagine Eubanks carving out enough minutes to be relevant in most fantasy leagues. With the Suns last season, Eubanks averaged 5.1 points, 4.3 rebounds and 0.8 assists in 15.6 minutes during the regular season.

Eubanks announced Friday he is declining his $2.6 million player option from the Suns for 2024-25 and will become an unrestricted free agent, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Eubanks will hit free agency after averaging 5.1 points and 4.3 rebounds in 15.6 minutes across 75 appearances, including six starts, for Phoenix in 2023-24. Eubanks will likely continue to operate as a backup center for a different team if he finds a new destination in free agency.
